I bought my device on 16.07.2010 for online stock streaming which requires java enabled device. I tried many sites which provide live stock market price but invain.Let me provide some websites:
(1)
https://trade.hdfcsec.com/
Or
www.hdfcsecurities.com>Tradenow>
Login with username>Login with Password>site map>BLINK (which provides streaming of live stock market prices). Issue will start after opening the page.
(2)
www.advfn.com>login (Issue will start after login)
(3)
www.sify.com>finance>stockometer (Issue will start after click on stockometer)
and so on. In all these websites error message is same as follows.
(Tried with Maemo default browser, Mozilla Firefox maemo version and Opera mobile also).
Error messagege: Applet cannot be loaded in your browser. You need to have a java enabled browser to run this applet. Download java run time - version 6 from http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp.
Java is free to download for all operating systems from sun java.I have downloaded the same and tried to install on my N900 maemo 5 device, and installation ends with application manager “file corrupt message”.
Is there any solution for this kind of problem?
Is there any alternative solution for this kind of issues?
I bought this device exclusively for live market streaming. Which does not address the purpose of the device for me?
For kind information I have updated my firmware with latest version 10.2010.19-1.203.1.
Kindly help to resolve this issue at the earliest. I am badly in need of it.

"Full web experience" does not include Java-applets, it seems.
Meego won't have Java either (officially).

Sir,
Is there any other alternative to run java applets in maemo browser?

There's no native Java support on the N900, so those sites won't work through the default browser.
However, you might like to give Opera 10.x a try. The developers wrote their own custom Javascript engine for it. The applets might work in that.

I'm actually looking at the HDFCSEC log-in/sign-up page on my N900. But I was told I need IE 5.5 to view the sites, but I just tapped OK and the page loaded anyway.

Hope that helps.

Nokia promised with this device to browse at par with desktop computer.I emailed this message but no proper reply recieved so far.
please help me.I am in need of it.

Nokia has old school developers in executive level who think (wrongly) interpreted code cannot ever be faster than compiled native code, so they do not see Java's potential. Also Nokia's agenda to push Qt has something surely to do with this.

However, now when N900 has Java with icedtea6, someone is able to provide web-browser plugin also later, maybe.

I tried with icedtea6 and microemulator also,but doesn't work.

Install Easy Debian from Extras, run Debian Img Installer and after that open the Ice Weacel Web B(rowser). With this browser you can use Java Applets.

Well, as with PCs, it needs also plugin to the browser. icedtea6 package currently only has Java environment without the browser plugin. You could try to run appletviewer directly on CLI and giving URI of that Java-applet to it. I doubt it would work though.
Example:
(will start several applets in their own web-windows)

that trick didn't seem to work with http://dan-ball.jp/en/javagame/dust/
