Java Applets
A Java applet is a Java program designed to run inside a web browser. Java is a programming language originally developed by Sun Microsystems The browser uses a
Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to run the Java program. The JVM is basically a browser plug-in, although many browsers have Java support installed by default so the user does
not need to install it separately. A web page will have an area set aside to display the output from an applet, and the
applet is downloaded over the web and runs in the browser. The output is usually graphical, and can use some of the same user interface components as a Java
application.
Applets have some limitations
Security: It would not generally be a good idea for a web page you download to be able to access your computer’s files at will. For this reason, applets run within a ‘sandbox’ that
imposes strict controls on what certain kinds of Java programs can and cannot do. (It is possible to avoid some limitations using digitally signed applets from trusted sources).
Compatibility: The Java Virtual Machine on which the applet runs is provided by the browser. The JVM must support the version of Java with which the applet was created,
otherwise the applet may not run. The versions of Java supported by browsers vary, so if you are putting an applet in a web page, it is difficult to be sure that your viewers ‘
browsers will run the applet In the early days of Java, it was envisaged that client-side applets running inside
browsers would be the main use of Java on the web. However, these limitations led to the development of server-side Java (JSP and servlets), and applets have become
relatively less important. Some animated text and graphics effects can be useful, such as ticker-tape displays of the latest stock-market figures.

A Java applet is a little application. which is written in Java and delivered to users in the form of bytecode. The user launches the Java applet from a web page, and the applet is then executed within a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) in a process separate from the web browser itself.
