First of all not sure if this is the right place, but I have written a small applet but when I try a view this in my browser I get.

Your browser is ignoring the <APPLET> tag!

I have tried this in the latest Firefox and also Internet Explaoria 7

any help would be amazing thanks :P

Deprecated element in HTML 4.01 and isn't supported at all in XHTML Strict doctypes.

use the <object> element instead
