Sign java applet without security pop-up

I have question about signing java applets. I have self-signed applet. When i open webpage i have security warning dialog, and i have to confirm permissions. Is it possible (for example via SSL certificate or i don't know, some code certificate) that this dialog will not appear?

Get a certificate from a trusted authority, like Thawte or Verisign. This way you'll ensure your users, that you are a trusted party (so they might more willingly click the Always trust content from this publisher checkbox).

You - as an application developer - cannot disable this dialog completely, but your users can. Look at the Avoiding security chapter of this document to find out how.

Is it possible ... that this dialog will not appear?

Only if there is a security bug in the JRE.

If the code is digitally signed using a verified certificate, the security warning will be more mild, the signer identified in the dialog, and Always Trust might be checked by default.
