Niall's Java Applets Page

Free Java Applets

All these applets are available free for use in other web pages, with the only condition being that a link back to this page should be placed on the page containing the applet. Also I'd appreciate an e-mail letting me know if you use an applet.

The Applets

The Image Sequencer

This applet displays a sequence of images, each of which can have its own link to another web page if it is clicked. Special effects are used to change from one image to another. It would be ideal for displaying several advertisement banners on one page, for example.

The Countdown Applet


This applet shows the number of seconds remaining to a certain date and time, which by default is 1st January, 2000. A background can also be added.

The Links and Message Scroller

This scrolls a message across the screen. The message can include hypertext links which direct the browser to a new web page when clicked.

The Message Scroller

A simpler version of the previous scroller, as there can be no hypertext links. The background image and the scrolling speed can be changed.

Zip Loader Applet

This is an unusual applet which allows text files to be extracted from a zip archive held on the server. The files are then displayed in a new window. It saves space on the server, and cuts download times. Note: This applet requires Java 1.1, which means that you must be using a new browser, such as Netscape Navigator 4 or Internet Explorer 4, to see it.

The Vertical Scroller

Under Construction. This applet scrolls a list of items vertically. Each item can have a link to another WWW page, if it is clicked.
