Answer / manjusinga
Applets are standalone programs which require a third party
tool for its execution that is either it is java enabled
web browser,or applet runner.so it doesnt have main().It is
possible to run a program without main.

Answer / abcd
Before we discuss about the applet, let us know that there
are 2 categories where we use java to program,,,,they are
1. java stand alone and 2. web based programs
Applets fall under partial web based program. There is no
main(), as it does not require the same...we use
AppletViewer instead of the main() where the applet file is
embeded in the html file.....
Applet is a java file and we embed the same in the HTML
file and then we run the HTML embeded java (applet file)
thru the JDK tool AppletViewer.

Answer / nagaraju gurram
first of all we can write a program without main method .
and in case if applets they are intended for web development so the applets need to be alive during the navigation . but main will exit after completion of the execution and terminates the object .and main thing is main is a starting point of a program and there is no controlling on main but in case of web page we have to control the object during the navigation.that is the reason where an object should contain a life and through life cycle methods defined.............
