<applet>


Definition

Applets can have attributes, contain <PARAM> elements and/or text.

Attributes

The required attributes are code (what to execute), width and height.

You should also include archive for performance reasons (the compressed file will be downloaded instead of the uncompressed file) .

If the applet is not located in the same directory as the web page, then codebase should be used to locate the applet.

Parameters

These are name and value pairs that are passed to the applet at startup time.

Applet is deprecated

In the HTML 4.01 standard the <applet> tag has been deprecated in favor of the <OBJECT> tag. However for backward compatibility we will keep on using the <applet> tag in all examples.

You may use the <object> tag, but most browsers in use don't understand the new <OBJECT> tag yet!
