Does Textpad auto create an applet html if none exists?

Post by mary steiner »

I searched the forums, but I didn't see this question:
Does Textpad automatically create an html file with the appropriate class name capable of running a Java applet if one doesn't exist?
When I run a Java applet with no html file, I get a popup dialog which
prompts me to select a html file. If I click no/cancel (can't remember) it just goes ahead and runs the applet anyway, creating a tpxxxxx file in my directory. Is this documented in Textpad help, or anywhere elese?

Thanks

Yes it does. See the C:\Program Files\Textpad 4\system directory. In it you will find the "Runjava.bat" batch file which automatically generates an appropriate html file and runs the applet viewer on it. However I think textpad may use a different method to generate the html files.
