Yes, I just looked at several at
http://java.sun.com/applets/ and they
worked fine.

I have <APPLET> tags enabled - that box was already "on" when I checked the
settings in the java console.
The applets on your page still don't display. When I move the mouse over the
grey applet rectangles, there is a message that says
"com.mindprod.jdisplay.JDisplay not found" (or words to that effect, the
message appears only VERY briefly in the status line). That sounds like a
problem at your end although Thomas' success with seeing the page makes that
a doubtful assumption....

When I went to this page, it told me that "Your browser is not configured
properly for Java Web Start *.jnlp and application/x-java-jnlf-file MIME
types." That can't be the cause of the problem, right? Your applets are not
using Web Start are they? I installed Web Start at one point and ran a few
demos with it but only ever use it within the Java Tutorial (where it works
fine).
Could this be a version issue with the JRE? I am running 1.5.0, not 1.5.0_x.
