Comments on Java animation applet (Ani2.class)

Error loading images

I've been trying to use your Java image animator, but I'm getting an error message that says "Error loading image 1; quitting." The applet HTML setup looks like this.

<APPLET code="Ani2.class" width=640 height=480>
<PARAM name="basename" value="image">
<PARAM name="num_images" value="5">
</APPLET>

In a directory, I have the "Ani2.class" file along with 5 images named "image0.gif", "image1.gif", ... , "image4.gif". My guess is that we aren't using the "basename" parameter correctly. Do you see a problem?

Re: Error loading images

The catch with this applet is that you must make a copy of the gif without the .gif suffix...so your image0.gif, image1.gif, etc. should be named image0, image1, image2, etc. to be used by this applet.

The "Error loading image 1; quitting." usually means that it can't find the required filenames...
