Thread: Java applet on web showing gray box

Hello, I'm working on my senior project where we are trying to make an online game. The game is finished but when we try to deploy the applet to an html file we get a gray screen. Spent a lot of time researching solutions with no luck, was hoping someone here could help us. This is the code for the method that calls the GUI:

package testGUI;

public class testGUI extends JApplet {
    //Called when this applet is loaded into the browser.
 
    public void init() {
 
        try {
            LogManager lm = LogManager.getLogManager();
            final Logger logger;
            FileHandler fh = new FileHandler("log_test.txt");
            //Execute a job on the event-dispatching thread; creating this applet's GUI.
 
            logger = Logger.getLogger("GUI");
            lm.addLogger(logger);            
            fh.setFormatter(new XMLFormatter());
            logger.addHandler(fh);
            try {
                SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(new Runnable() {
 
                    public void run() {
                        createGUI();
                        logger.setLevel(Level.INFO);
                        logger.log(Level.INFO, "GUI created");
                    }
                });
            } catch (Exception e) {
                logger.setLevel(Level.WARNING);
                logger.log(Level.WARNING, "createGUI didn't complete successfully " + e);
                fh.close();
            }
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(testGUI.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        } catch (SecurityException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(testGUI.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
    }
 
    private void createGUI() {
        //Create and set up the content pane.
        for (int i = 0; i < 22; i++) {
            System.out.println((i % 3));
        }
        MapPanel p = new MapPanel(200, 200);
        System.out.println(p.getSize());
        p.setBackground(Color.red);
        //JFrame jf=new JFrame("Game");

        int ySize = ((int) tk.getScreenSize().getHeight());
        //jf.setSize(xSize,ySize);
        JPanel whole = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout());
        GridBagConstraints A = new GridBagConstraints();
        A.gridx = 1;
        A.gridy = 1;
        Player p1 = new Player("Stephen");
        Player p2 = new Player("Shayne");
        Game g = new Game(p1, p2, MakeMapOne.returnMap());
        gameGUI a = new gameGUI(g);
 
        whole.add(a);
        //JLabel l=new JLabel (new ImageIcon("Graphics/g1Background"));
        //jf.add(l);
        //l.setVisible(true);

        nodeGUI node1 = new nodeGUI(1);
        whole.setSize(xSize, ySize);
        whole.add(node1, A);
 
        a.setOpaque(true);
        setContentPane(a);

There are more classes but those are the main ones responsible for drawing the GUI. Since we made the game and the web components at different times, my guess would be that something in the game code is not compatible with japplet browser capabilities. Any advice would be appreciated.

It works fine through an IDE, no errors.

Oh sorry, no just a blank gray box.
