Netscape & Java Applets

by jtfinnh . Updated 22 years, 7 months ago

This problem could be because I’m trying to run more than one browser on my system. However . . .

I have several web pages upon which I have placed a java applet which has been generated by a utility named Ulead Button Applet which was released with PhotoImpact 4.2. The problem recurred when I’m running Windows 98, ME & XP.

I have established that when a button is ‘clicked’ there is an audible ‘click’ (or other associated sound. This occurs in a ‘mouse over’ or actual selection of the control.

The problem:
When IE accesses this menu, I can get the output I have expected. When I access the same menu using Netscape, I get a long, rather annoying cacophany of sound until I ‘kill’ the browser (or, worse case scenario, re-boot.

Ihaven’t been able to get a direct answer from Ulead (who has since developed another tool)or Netscape.

If there is some ‘straight foward’ code which will emit a sound during a mouse over as well as emit a sound and execute an action like startinga download or changing the contents of another frame I’d be more intersted in that.
