Well, it's very simple:
1. About the sleep, you are right there is a sleep and you can use it,
the only difference is that is in milliseconds (but I guess it's not
very hard to multiply with 1000 your Seconds)
So you can use
------------------------------------------------------
Thread.sleep(Xseconds * 1000);
------------------------------------------------------
if you have only one thread running (the system one).
And don't forget to import
"import java.lang.Thread;"
2. Every applet has an AppletContext and every AppletContext has a
method called
"showDocument(URL)" which ask the browser to load the document
described by the URL
So you need to find out your appletcontext:
----------------------------------------------------
AppletContext ac = getAppletContext();
ac.showDocument(new URL("java.sun.com"));
-------------------------------------------------------
and then ask the browser to load your page or whatever.
I hope this helped you
