When to use Applets:

The following are the situations when we might need to use applets.

1.       When we need something dynamic to be included in the display of a Web page. For example, an applet that displays daily sensex would be useful on a page that lists share prices of various companies or an applet that displays a bar chart would add value to a page.

2.       When we require some "flash" outputs. For example, applets that produce sounds, animations or some special effects would be useful when displaying certain pages.

3.       When we want to create a program and make it available on the Internet for us by others on their computers.
