Can I set Firefox to run unsigned applets easily?

Is there any way that 开发者_JS百科I can set my Linux box's firefox browser to run unsigned applet? This is an isolated testing machine. Can I set my firefox to be less secure, means can run any unsigned applets?

Im having problems in loading signed applets on my own local system with local html files.

Need advice.

I think this is an issue with Firefox not allowing you to run applets from the file system. If you have a web server on localhost and serve the directory up that way it works fine. I'm not sure how you can change Firefox's configuration, but it's worth noting that other browsers don't have this restriction. So if you have Safari or Opera installed, you can test with those.

The signed/unsigned applet is more a function of the Java plugin than Firefox. I'd suggest you sign your applet with a self-signed key. You then just need to add your self-signed public key to the listed of trusted keys within the Java JVM.
