Not Flash? In my experience Java applets never got anywhere close to the level of adoption of Flash. I suppose it might've been different in corporate environments. I had Flash enabled in my browser long after I stopped using Java applets altogether, if only for video streaming.
- protomyth 9y agoCorporate environments were different (easy was to expose Java business program to user without hiring Web people), but the doom of Java in the browser was the whole applet concept and not the DOM integration that JavaScript had. It might have been quite a difference if the JVM could have controlled the webpage like JavaScript.
