A multimedia application written or embedded in the Java language such as animation or sound, viewable only in a Java-enabled browser such as Netscape 2.0 or HotJava.

A small program‚ built in Java script‚ which is downloaded to your PC where it runs independently in a web page.

A small Java application or program which runs on the client machine.

Java programs; an application program that uses the client's web browser to provide a user interface.

A program, written in the programming language Java, that can be downloaded over a network and launched on the user's computer.

Quite simply, a small application. For example, each of the windows that appear when you double-click on an icon in Control Panel are considered Applets, because while they are small applications by themselves, they require a larger application (Control Panel) to operate them.

A small computer application program designed to enhance the learning of a concept through animation or the manipulation of parameters.

A small program (usually written in Java or ActiveX) that is downloaded to perform a small task on a computer, such as a particular interactive web page function.

An applet is a small program that can be sent along with a Web page to a user. It utilizes Java, the object-oriented programming language. Java applets can perform interactive animations, immediate calculations, or other simple tasks without having to send a user request back to the server.

A small Java program. that can be placed (embedded) in an HTML page. Applets differ from full-fledged Java applications in that they are not allowed to access files and serial devices (modems, printers, etc.) on the local computer, and are prohibited from communicating with other computers across a network. See Also: HTML, Java, Network

a small, often free, software program that is linked to your browser. Applets let you view short film clips, listen to sounds, etc. Applets are also referred to as plug-ins.

a simple program written in the Java programming language and integrated into a web page for added interactivity. Common examples include scrolling text boxes.

A small program used to carry out a particular task, often on a web page. See Java.

a mini-application program written in Java that allows you to view simple animations on web pages.

A small program written in Java(tm) and is embedded with a web page.

Java program which can be distributed as an attachment in a World Wide Web document and executed by a Java-enabled web browser such as Sun's HotJava, Netscape Navigator version 2.0, or Internet Explorer. Navigator severely restricts the applet's file system and network access in order to prevent accidental or deliberate security violations. Full Java applications, which run outside of the browser, do not have these restrictions. Web browsers can also be extended with plug-ins though these differ from applets in that they usually require manual installation and are platform-specific. Various other languages can now be embedded within HTML documents, the most common being JavaScript. Despite Java's aim to be a "write once, run anywhere" language, the difficulty of accomodating the variety of browsers in use on the Internet has led many to abandon client-side processing in favour of server-side Java programs for which the term servlet was coined. Merriam Webster "Collegiate Edition" gives a 1990 definition: a short application program especially for performing a simple specific task. Source: Dictionary.com

A (Java) program that can be downloaded over the network and executed on a Java Virtual Machine.

An applet is a small application. In terms of the Internet, an applet is a little program that can be sent with a Web page to a user. Using Java programming language, applets can perform animation and other tasks without having to send user data back to a host server.

Applet is a "little application" which can be executed as part of a web page. Applet is a small program written by Java.

A Java program or application designed to be embedded in, and invoked from, a web page, or other application. It cannot be run by itself.

A Java program (usually small) which is embedded in web page. Applets can only perform a restricted subset of instructions. This restriction is to provide security and confidence for users. Do not confuse with JavaScript.

A very small Java program that can be downloaded quickly and used by any computer equipped with a Java- or ActiveX-capable browser.

A program written in the Java to run within a web browser. Java applets begin execution with a series of init(), start(), and paint() methods. ;stop(), and destroy() methods are available. Every Java applet should extend either class Japplet or class Applet.

A small computer program that can be transmitted from a server to a client computer and executed on the client.

Applets are small programs written in Java and embedded within web pages. Most recent browsers can run these small programs if you have Java installed on your computer.

An applet that will run inside a panel or another such application, likely desktop specifi.c

A computer program written in Java. Applets are similar to applications, but they don't run as stand alones, the run within a Java-compatible browser.

A program, written in the Java language, that a user can interact with in a web browser. See also application.

A type of computer program that allows animation and other interactive functions on a file or Web page.

A Java program that can be included in an HTML page with the APPLET element and observed in a Java-enabled browser.

A small program, often written in Java, which usually runs in a web browser, as part of a web page.

An Applet is a small Java program downloaded and run through your Web Browser. For example, mc² uses an Java applet for Chat. View the definition of an Applet from Sun, the makers of Java. See also: Browser and Java

A tiny program that is embedded in a webpage built in HTML (hyper-text markup language), and which launches when the webpage is loaded. Applets are written in Java and are frequently used in playing videos, animated images, audio, and other features that enhance a person's experience in the page. Unfortunately, applets are often written in ways that require individuals to download programs such as the latest version of Java language that may not be allowed on their computer. Thus, web browsing experiences that rely on applets can be frustrating for individuals who may need to use computers that have firewalls and security.

A small application, typically downloaded from a server.

A small program that runs "in a browser". Applets are usually written in Java. They differ from applications in that they have restricted functionality which is designed to protect the users machine from faulty or malicious code. The restrictions include the inability to write to the users hard disk or execute operating system functions. The applets are downloaded from Web sites along with the web page in which it was embedded. They are typically used to provide a more advanced user interface than HTML is capable of. See Also: ActiveX , Java

A small program sent over the Internet or an intranet that is interpreted and executed by Internet browser software.

A small program that can be run on different types of machines, i.e. Apple Mac and IBM PC compatible.

A program that can be downloaded over a network and launched on the user's computer (see Java).

An application program written in Java which allows viewing of simple animation on web pages.

An applet is a little application program. Prior to the World Wide Web, the built-in writing and drawing programs that came with Windows were sometimes called "applets." On the Web, using Java, the object-oriented programming language, an applet is a small program that can be sent along with a Web page to a user. Java applets can perform interactive animations, immediate calculations, or other simple tasks without having to send a user request back to the server.

A small Java program that can be embedded in an HTML page. Applets differ from full-fledged Java applications in that they are not allowed to access certain resources on the local computer, such as files and serial devices (modems, printers, etc.), and are prohibited from communicating with most other computers across a network.

A multimedia application written or embedded in the Java language such as animation or sound, viewable only in a Java-enabled browser (most, if not all modern browsers are Java-enabled).

This usually means the programs that were developed in the programming language Java and are used in connection with a Java-capable internet browser.

A program or mini-application that can be downloaded over a network and activated on the user's computer. To do this safely, you must have a secure way of running applets. The Java language is designed to support safe applets.

An applet is a software component that runs in the context of another program, for example a web browser. An applet usually performs a very narrow function that has no independent use. Hence, it is an application -let.
