Hi all!

I have the following situation: a browser communicate with a servlet. Is
there a way to query the browser by the servlet, whether the browser
allows applet?

Thanx,
Daniel

Sure, have a page (e.g. applettest.jsp) with an applet that
redirects to appletsyes.jsp, but has a meta-refresh tag that sends
the user to 'appletsno.jsp' after a few seconds.

Hi,

Thanx for the hint. I have found an other solution. In the <applet> -tag
there is a word "ALT" --> this is for alternate text.
And before </APPLET> i can specify any alternate html code...
