Hi,
I need some advise with a java applet.  I am nearing completing of the 
project and am getting a little concerned how long it is taking for the 
applet to load.  I have developed the java applet with Jbuilder using the 
JDK 1.1.8 as I need to support users with that haven't installed the latest 
version of the Java Runtime.

So I have been searching the internet trying to see how to speed up the 
loading process.  I've notice that some applets on the web have a loader, 
that displays a nice background image and shows a progress bar of the jar 
files downloading.  These applets aren't using the Java 1.4 parameters to 
display a background.

So I've been trying to achieve this, but for the life of me I can't find any 
examples of how to do this!!! Which is very frustrating as I know it's 
possible.
Whilst on my search I noticed a few people talking about preloaders, where 
the jar files are downloaded on a previous page showing a progress bar. 
Then once all the files have been download it redirects the user to the page 
with the applet.

So the question is, does anybody have any examples for either of the two 
options?

Many thanks

Wayne
