hello.au
Hello everyone. I'm really glad to have found this forum and am hoping for help with a Java problem.
I have a Javascript Chat Room (from freejavachat.com) as part of my website and want some sort of audio alert so that I know when someone comes in. Here's what I was advised to do, and have done:- in the applet code I've put (param name="joinsound" value="hello.au") and a file called hello.au is in the same directory as the Chat Room page. But no sound happens. It may be significant that my site is on my iDisk, hosted by .Mac. Is there some Java-knowledgeable person there who has a .Mac account and can figure out what else I need to do? With very many thanks for reading.

if you like, you may7 send me the applet and i;ll put it on my webserver for testing purposes, to see if it is your .mac account (whatever that is!)

i need the html file you declare the applet in.. the applet class file, and the hello.au sound file. shove em in a zip and post them to this board would priobably be the easiest thing to do

Oh dear - I'm new to all this - thanks for your patience. HTML file - yes. Hello.au file - yes. But what's the applet class file? [/QUOTE hmm,okay.... this could be the stumbling block.. the applet will either come packaged as a jar, or a class file... do you have either of thiose?

Could it be that I don't have one because the code was generated for me by the site that hosts the chat room? I have asked them but hven't had a reply yet.
The weather here's been dry but chilly today. Is it you who's been to my site and looked at 'Who We Are'?

applets cannot, by default, contact any site other than the one they came from.. this stops me writing an applet that uploads your credit card details to someone, or participates in a distributed denial of service attack.. so basically, youve got an applet written by ACME Applets Inc, sitting on ACME's servers, and being downloaded from them.. It then CANNOT go and download a file from your server, due to security restrictions. plus, even if it could, the parameter supplied wouldnt work, because it is only a relative path.. it does not specify the host where the file should be downlaoded from.. so your page, with their applet, and your instruction to download hello.au.. will ultimately result in hello.au being requested from THEIR server, not yours :/ there's no easy way to win this one, and the effort you'd have to put into it, wouldnt be economic... plus, you'd quickly find the audio an interruption and seek to turn it off (trust an old-time chatroom boy!) bah.. cant win with this weather.. it's been baking all day... yesterday was nice, but rainy.. today i cant think. i could ahve done without Bolton blowing up their TFT screen too, but it got me out the office for a good few hours.. (and aye.. i trawled round your site, seeing if i could find the aforementioned not-working applet. i probably got way-layed and then fell asleep after putting some music on the latop...)
