can't run applet with .html file [message #831856]

I have written a java applet in eclipse which runs perfectly when I run it in eclipse with applet viewer.

As part of an online class (I am in 9th grade and trying to learn java programming) I have to also run the applet via a ".html" file.

I wrote the following file in a text editor and saved it with a .html extension. I've tried putting it in the src folder, the bin folder and the workspace but no matter what I do when I double click on the .html file it just opens up a browser window and displays the text of the .html file rather than the browser.

Please let me know what I am doing wrong - is it a problem with the file path eclipse creates and I am not specifying the java.class correctly?

Thanks you.

html code follows:

<html>

<head>

<title>CardApplet</title>

</head>

<body>

<applet code="CardApplet.class"width=400 height=200></applet>

</body>

</html>

You should double-check whether it's really a .html file or if another
extension (.txt?) has been silently appended to it. In the location bar
of the browser window, does the URL end with the .html as you expect?
