Hi ,

Below are the difference between applet and Japplet:

1. I java programming applet is a class of awt package.On other hand
Japplet is a class of swing package.

2. In applet we don't get good feel & look but where in Japplet we get good look & feel

3.We use "add()" to add components in applet, while in Japplet we use "add()" mathod of content pane.

Components in java are basically of two types AWT and Swing

1.Abstract Window Toolkit(AWT):which supports Applet
*.Applet is light weight
*.Applet derived from java.applet.*
2.Swing components:which supports Japplet
*.Japplet is heavy weight
*.Japplet derived from javax.swing.*

One of the essential features of the MVC paradigm is JApplet

Japplet has following advantages over Applet:

1.Japplets has support to assistive technologies, while applet doesn't has

2.Top-level swing container is Japplet in which each Japplet contains root pane
