How to post .jar file on website, & if you do so via applet, can someone who cannot edit the site create an applet for the website?
Short answer, no. Long answer, nope.
In fact, it surprises me that you would think that you can launch an applet from a site when you cannot edit it! If that were possible, I could insert spam ads in a site that is supposedly under your control!
As to deploying the application:
The best way to deploy a Java desktop application is using Java Web Start. A JWS app. can be launched from a link on a web site.
It is a lot easier to deploy a JWS app. than it is to deploy applets (which, BTW, soon won't be supported in Chrome or IE at all, and are by default blocked in Safari and FF).
You will still need 'edit permission' on the site to launch a JWS app. As well as the ability to add new files to the site (e.g. the Jars(s) & the JNLP file used to launch the app.).
Lastly, either applets or JWS will need to be digitally signed by a valid certificate before there is a good chance of the JRE allowing them to launch.
I have created a simple java..
Not looking so simple now, is it? ;)
Deployment is typically a lot harder than people expect, and in the case of 'simple apps.' harder than they were to code and debug..
