# Exercise 3: Running the Project

In this exercise, you will run the Blink project using the HTML file that Java WorkShop created.

1. Check the project manager for the name of the current project.
   If the current project is not Blink, double-click on the Blink project name.
2. Click the Run button on the Java WorkShop main toolbar.
   Java WorkShop generates the HTML file in your `Blink` directory. This HTML file includes the tag, which specifies the options to use when placing the Blink project on a web page. Java WorkShop loads the file into the applet viewer, and you can see the Blink project executing. The word "Blink" blinks on and off, in different colors.
3. To stop the running applet, choose Applet -> Quit in the Applet Viewer window.
