Yes, but ... JMeter can download but does not run applets or JavaScript.
Having said that, the browser will download applets and JavaScript via JMeter and then run them itself. i.e. when running as a proxy, JMeter does not need to know how to run the applets or JavaScript, because the browser is does it. So as far as I can tell, the proxy server should record what the applet is doing, and in theory the replay should work, no? This assumes that the applet requests get routed via the JMeter proxy, and that the proxy correctly records everything the applet sends, and replay mimics everything correctly ... What errors are you getting? Are there any errors in jmeter.log? Do you get the same errors if you use the browser to issue the same requests as have been recorded by JMeter?
