Wordfind.java

This is a fast-loading applet (the author calls it Jumblaya) which is perfect for educational pages. And of course it's perfect for those learning to program, as the source code is included. Try it out! When you see a word, click on the letters to highlight them. When you're ready to play another game, click the start button.

You need a browser with support for Java 1.1.3 or greater to view this applet. Try to keep the words to less than 8-9 characters, or the applet may not be able to place them quickly, and be sure to use more than 2-3 words or the applet will not work.

Usage: Place Wordfind.class and Adorn.class within your HTML directory.
