Detect why an applet fials to load

[SPG]

Hi,

We have an applet which is not loading on some systems.
We suspect it is a security issue, but cannot be sure as of yet.

Is there any way of programatically trapping the failure so we can log it
somewhere?

Cheers,

Steve

the Java console should show why the applet fails to load, try a Java
group for details

Hi,

Actually, I need to detect it on the page at runtime..

I need to be able to determine at runtime that a user has rejected a
certificate on our applet.
In th econsole window it reports the following:

Skipping CAB: Test.cab
due to: java.lang.Error: User rejected the CAB.
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: TestApplet
at com/ms/vm/loader/URLClassLoader.loadClass (URLClassLoader.java)
at com/ms/vm/loader/URLClassLoader.loadClass (URLClassLoader.java)
at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.securedClassLoad (AppletPanel.java)
at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.processSentEvent (AppletPanel.java)
at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.processSentEvent (AppletPanel.java)
at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.run (AppletPanel.java)
at java/lang/Thread.run (Thread.java)


But, I am not sure as to where I can catch this error..
Would it be possible in either the applet or perhaps in javascript?

Thanks in advance,

Steve
