This Applet will calculate all three types of Canadian sales tax, GST, HST and PST. The calculator is also available with Java source to download. It is designed to be cannibalised, so that you can use whatever parts of the calculator source code you want in your own code, e.g. a shopping cart. There are notes in the source on precisely how the taxes are calculated. You can also configure your copy of the downloaded program to start up with whatever province you like.

You need Java to run the Applet that would normally appear in this space.

If, canadiantax, the above Canadian Sales Tax Calculator Java Applet (that can also be run as an application) does not work…

  1. This Java Applet (that can also be run as an application) needs Java 1.5 or later, version 1.5.0_16 or later recommended, ideally 1.6.0_07 and a recent browser.
  2. You should see an Applet hybrid above looking much like the screenshot. If you don’t, the following should help you get it working:
  3. If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer, try another browser. Seriously. Microsoft has taken great pains, over and over, to screw up Java and every other mult-platform standardisation.
  4. If you are using Internet Explorer 7, you must allow blocked content permission for Active X to run. This also gives permission to Java to run. Click the Information bar, and then click Allow blocked content. Unfortunately, this also allows dangerous ActiveX code to run. However, you must do this in order to get access to perfectly-safe Java Applets running in a sandbox. This is part of Microsoft’s war on Java. Don’t put up with it! Use a different browser.
  5. Especially if this Applet hybrid has worked before, try clearing the browser cache and rebooting.
  6. To ensure your Java is up to date, check with Wassup. First, download it and run it as an application independent of your browser, then run it on-line as an Applet to add the complication of your browser.
  7. If the above Applet hybrid does not work, check the Java console for error messages.
  8. If the above Applet hybrid does not work, you might have better luck with the downloadable version.
  9. If you still can’t get the program working click HELP for more detail.
  10. If you can’t get the above Applet hybrid working after trying the advice above and from the HELP button below, have bugs to report or ideas to improve the program or its documentation, please send me an email atemail Roedy Green.
