> Can anyone recommend a good howto book on Java 1.1 Applets?
I suggest you get a good book on Java, then use the current
API docs. to determine which methods have been deprecated.
I doubt you will find many books concentrating on Applets,
and very much doubt you will find a book on Java 1.1
(quite old and obsolete) applets.

Weren't there [good] books on Java a long time ago when java 1.1 was the
only thing around?

I wish it was obsolete!!! Many a bank I've worked for refuse to put
more recent version of JVM in their IE browsers! (this info valid as
of 9/05)
How about Java in a Nutshell 2nd edition. That's where I learned 1.1
applets. $3 on ebay it looka like...
Have fun,

My favorite book for learning Java was "1001 Java Programmer's Tips":
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1884133320/
which is a good first book despite its name, which sounds more like a fine
points book. It was a terrific book because it made all the points using
small programs that actually work. However, it used the Java 1.0 event
model, and it would be better to use Java 1.1 books. For 1.1 I'd recommend:
Exploring Java, 2nd Edition
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006AVRV
Java AWT Reference
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1565922409
Java Fundamental Classes Reference
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005R08Y
Most books focus more on applications instead of applets, but you can see
many Java 1.1 applets with full source code at www.segal.org/java/
