He's talking about the World Wind Java applet by Nasa as discussed here.

Although I was able to get the applet to load successfully, it wouldn't run because it was producing an error in that it couldn't find "gov.nasa.worldwind.examples.applet.WWJApplet". After an hour of experimenting I've not yet found a solution to that.

The basic principle with java applets on wikidot seems to be to make sure that you have the class file and all the jar files in the same folder, i.e. uploaded to your page. Everything must be in binary executable format and not in clear text. I'm sure we'll be able to get applets running, although this one is proving a b**g*r..

ok. I'll try your suggestions. By the way, how did you load the applet successfully? Did you code block the applet?
