More Details on Applet Tags - I

• Given the following HTML:

  <APPLET CODE="StockGraph.class"
  
  CODEBASE="http://www.javasoft.com/applets/"
  WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200>
  </APPLET>

• Runs the "StockGraph.class" byte code as an applet.

• WIDTH and HEIGHT attributes passed along to the applet.

• If the optional CODEBASE attribute is provided, then load the executable image from the specified directory.

  • Without the CODEBASE attribute, will look for StockGraph.class in the Web server's hierarchy relative to where the HTML was loaded.

• May supply an ARCHIVE attribute that specifies a “.jar” file (akin to tar in UNIX) to download. The class in the CODE attribute should be one of the classes in the jar file.
