Applet Example

• Here's a quick and dirty JApplet I threw together:

import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.Graphics;
 

/**
 *
 * @author  default
 */
public class TempConverter extends Applet {

        float celciusTemp = 0.0F;

    /** Initialization method that will be called after the applet is loaded
     *  into the browser.
     */
    public void init () {
            // get our parameter.
            String strTemp = getParameter("temp");
            // We have to do this the odl fashioned way.
            float fltTemp = new Float(strTemp).floatValue();
            // covert
            celciusTemp = (fltTemp - 32)*5/9;
 

    }

    public void paint(Graphics g) {
        // send data to browser.
        g.drawString("Celcius temperature is: " + celciusTemp, 50, 25);
    }
 

}
 

• And, the corresponding HTML:

• And, a screen capture of the result:
