I try not to go begging for help unless I really am in dire need (after all I really shouldn't be playing around with some of these things when, in truth, I don't fully understand them). The folks at this forum have always been particularly gracious though, so I thought perhaps someone might be so kind as to point me down the right path with this applet that I'd like to add to miy site . . .
My situation is a bit tricky to put into words. I found an on-line paint applet, but I'm not sure weather or not it will work with my site since I use free web-space from Angelfire (don't want to buy the domain untill I have a site that's worth it). I'm also curious as to how many of these .class and .java files I actually need. Are some of them arbitrary? I understand that it may be a bit of an inconvenience, but I would greatly apreciate it if someone would look at the zip file here and at least let me know weather or not I'm going to be able to use this considering the nature of my web space provider (which requires a user name and password for access - thus my concern as to how the images will be saved from the applet). I'll post below the text document that comes with the zip file as well. My questions may possibly be answered therin. Thank you . . .

What it is:
eGraffiti is an internet drawing board that shows what each user is drawing simultaneously.
How to put it on your site:
The eGraffiti applet and application must be on the same server. They cannot connect to each other if they are not on the same server for security reasons. Once you've uploaded the .class files and the .gif files, then you need to run the server application on the server. The java runtime environment must be installed on the server. Run the server application. Reference <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.java.sun.com">www.java.sun.com</a><!-- w --> for instructions on using the java runtime environment. Once it is running make a webpage with an applet tag for the eGraffiti applet. Sample tag below:
<APPLET CODE=eGraffiti.class WIDTH=800 HEIGHT=600>
<param name=serverIP value=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"199.5.198.32">
</APPLET>
The code tag specifies the file to run. The width should be 800 and the height should be 600.
The parameter serverIP specifies the ip address of the server on which the server application is running; this should be the ip address of your server.
