Java AWT Vs SWING

[Angela Jessi]

Hi,
I have following question:
Does AWT classes supports Tables in APPLET? If yes, can anybody give me simple example?
I know SWING classes supports Table in APPLET. But in Java 1.2 or Java 1.3 does I have to use HTML converter to see in Browser?
Please let me know,
Thanks
Angela

I'm moving this to the Swing /JFC/ AWT forum.

hi Angela,
No, we don't have any equivalent of swing JTable in AWT.so in an Applet(awt) you can not have a Table(until unless u implement it yourself).
and yesu r right , if you use swing JApplet then you can have JTable in the applet.
but again the problem with JApplet is that since most of the popular browsers don't support swing so u need to convert your html using HTML Converter and then the user will have to download the plugin(that can take considerable time)before he/she can view your applet.
so using swing may not be an efficient solution if u are not sure that the user will be happy in downloading plugin.

Thanks deekasha,
I want to know whether Swing 1.1 & 1.2 can run in all browser
without HTML converter and Java Plug-ins on user machines.
And also Can AWT 1.1, 1.2,1.3 run all browsers without HTML conveter & java plug-ins on User machines.
Thanks in advance,
Angela
