Standard applets require the HTML <APPLET> tag to identify the applet to the browser. The <APPLET> tag invokes the Java virtual machine (JVM) of the browser. It can also be replaced by <OBJECT> and <EMBED> tags.
The following code example illustrates the applet code using the <APPLET> tag.
<APPLET code=”MyAppletClass.class” archive=”Applet.jar, EJB.jar” width="600" height="500" > </APPLET>
The following code example illustrates the applet code using the <OBJECT> and <EMBED> tags.
<OBJECT classid="clsid: 8AE2D840-EC04-11D4-AC77-006094334AA9" width="600" height="500"> <PARAM NAME=CODE VALUE=MyAppletClass.class> <PARAM NAME="archive" VALUE='Applet.jar, EJB.jar'> <PARAM TYPE="application/x-java-applet;version=1.5.0"> <PARAM NAME="scriptable" VALUE="false"> <PARAM NAME="cache-option" VALUE="Plugin"> <PARAM NAME="cache-archive" VALUE="Applet.jar, EJB.jar"> <COMMENT> <EMBED type="application/x-websphere-client" CODE=MyAppletClass.class ARCHIVE="Applet.jar, EJB.jar" WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="500" scriptable="false"> <NOEMBED> </COMMENT> </NOEMBED>WebSphere Java Application/Applet Thin Client for Windows is required. </EMBED> </OBJECT>
