Is it possible to copy a java applet from one website to your own website?

I need to copy a java applet from one website to my own and was wondering if that is possible, either with some software or any way possible if there is one

Is it possible to copy a java applet from one website to your own website?
They can be copied and will work as long as there is no code in the module checking the site. The only problem is downloading all the associated files. The graphic files that an applet uses are not referred to in the HTML. You will have to edit the module and look for URLs.





Here is an example of one that I copied.

Reply:Applet, yes: It's independent code that is downloaded from the server to the web-browser. Servlets, though, run on the server.


Why not use applets with source code provided free online, such as the URL below? Look at the source .java code to se how you could modify it to make it your own.


Be aware that many users have turned off Java applet download as a security measure; if your web site depends on that code, many users would be turned away.
Reply:You can't, but really you would be stealing the other persons code. Unless it is free, and can be used just give the person credit!
