Manifest file for Applet

[Jon Harman]

Hi,
I still have an ImageJ applet that can run my plugin going on the web,
despite all the problems and hassles with signing:
http://www.dstretch.com/IJapplet/index.html
I get feedback from users that shows it is being used.
Now there is a new Java message telling me it won't work unless I add a
Permissions tag to the manifest file:

Note to the Publisher: Security features to prevent unauthorized
redistribution of your Java application will cause this application to
be blocked in the future. See current Java documentation about JAR
Manifest entries for the changes that need to be made.

Current Java documentation seems to say that I need to add this line
Permissions: all-permissions
to my Manifest.MF file. When I do this the applet fails to load.
I am about to give up on applets, but will try one last time. Has
anyone figured this out?
Jon

I agree that applets are increasingly difficult to deploy. Have you looked
at Java Web Start instead?
