Answer / hemant
The differences between an applet and an application are as
follows:
1. Applets can be embedded in HTML pages and downloaded
over the Internet whereas
Applications have no special support in HTML for embedding
or downloading.
2. Applets can only be executed inside a java compatible
container, such as a browser
or appletviewer whereas Applications are executed at
command line by java.exe or jview.exe.
3. Applets execute under strict security limitations that
disallow certain operations
(sandbox model security) whereas Applications have no
inherent security restrictions.
4. Applets don’t have the main() method as in applications.
Instead they operate on an
entirely different mechanism where they are initialized by
init(),started by start(),stopped
by stop() or destroyed by destroy().

Answer / chandrarekha
The major difference is that an application is a standalone
concept and can use the local system resources whereas an
applet is used over a network or it can be embedded in a
java enabled web browser or html page and it cannot have
the access to local system resources....

Answer / pankaj
A Java Applet is made up of at least one public class that has to be subclasses from java.awt.Applet. Whereas, A Java application is made up of a main() method declared as public static void that accepts a string array argument,along with any other classes that main() calls.
