Browsers - You can browse this file with a browser like IE or Netscape (if Java is enabled).
Appletviewer - Sun's "Appletviewer" allows you to view your applet without a browser. You will only see the Applet and non of the HTML. Appletviewer.exe resides in the JDK's bin directory. (ex: appletviewer MyHello_Applet.html )
main() - You will notice that there is no main() in
an applet. The main's function is provide by the browser as it creates
the container to run the applet just like main() does for a Java
application.
