Applets
This section of The Applet Depot houses applets that Eric Harshbarger has written and
is making available for free download (compiled code only), so that others may include Java on their own webpages.
Basic description and parameter documentation are included with each applet as well
as a link to a TAR file that bundles all the necessary classes together. The applets
below may be used by anyone on any webpages (commercial or otherwise). While no payment
is due to Eric Harshbarger for the use of the applets, a mention of recognition and a link back to
The Applet Depot would be greatly appreciated.
Eric has tried to make the applets as useful and 'parameterizable' as possible to allow maximum flexibility
with integration of the applets onto your pages. If you find that you're dying to see additional features to any of the
applets below, customization of the applets is possible.
