Asp.Net Capabillities Question

[Guest]

I am new to programming and do not have a lot of experience really with any
platform.

My Question though is that i know that java has java applets which can be
used for creating games and stuff for the web.

what can be used for this sort of thing in the .net platform?

what can be used for this sort of thing in the .net platform?

Winforms in IE... but it's pretty restrictive.

I would stick with Java Applets or Macromedia Flash.

Give it a try... you'll notice that WinForms in IE isn't ready for prime
time yet.

There are too many security restrictions... and it seemed to cause IE to
act funny whenever I recompiled my project...

With net you can download active content on desktops (see no touch
deployment), and you can obtain best results than with applets.
But you need the runtime on the client, and today java runtime is more
frequently available than net runtime. Of course, in the future this will
change.
