Dear Ulli
I saw your response with its recommendation only after I sent my note about installing an old java runtime. Your solution is better than mine!
I have downloaded and tried your new version, using it to export a cindy file to HTML. It works offline, I'm happy to report - and with the latest java runtime! I had a look at its HTML code using the Chrome browser — very neat. Brilliant idea to embed code as base64 text. Well done!
I will try exporting some of my existing Cindy applets to HTML using this new version. I assume I can still do as I have done before - view the HTML code in a browser, cut it from there, paste into my web page source, and send it off.
If that works, I suppose I will have to re-do all my site's Cindy applets in the same way - but that's no great pain.
Many thanks indeed!
> Acutally, I ran into exactly the same problem – and it was giving me a very hard time. The story behind this is that Java Applets coming from local files are assumed to be more dangerous than Java Applets downloaded from the net (and there are technical reasons that justify this assumption). This lead to local applets being abolished by recent Java plugins. There have been workarounds, but they are gone now as well.

> Long sad story – but there is a solution. Our recent beta is using a different export mechanism, which (a) includes the .cdy file in the HTML and (b) uses a remote Cinderella runtime downloaded from our servers, which will be cached once you used it. This makes it possible to run Applets locally and also offline (if used online once).

> Please try the new version at http://beta.cinderella.de/public and let me know whether that works for you. For your exports you will now only need the .html file, the .cdy and the cindyrun2.jar are not necessary anymore. Also, you can load the .html in Cinderella again to have access to the embedded construction.
