Using the <java-applet> tag

Attributes(what's this?)

• code (required): This attribute specifies either the name of the class file that contains the applet's compiled applet subclass or the path to get the class, including the class file itself.
• mime-type (required): The MIME type of the Java object, e.g., "application/x-java-applet". This requried value tells each visitor's browser what sort of information is contained in the object. A list of common Internet media MIME types can be found here.
• for (optional): Specifies whether this object should be displayed in the online or PDF version of the content, or be used as the default media object. If there is no default object present, then the <media> element will only be displayed for the version(s) specified.
  Possible values:
  • default - This element is used for both PDF and online versions unless another, version-specific element is present (default).
  • pdf - This element is used only for the PDF version of the content.
  • online - This element is used only for the online version of the content.
• codebase (optional): A URI specifying the where the applet's files are located. If this attribute is not set, the browser will by default assume the applet's files are located in the current directory.
• archive (optional): A comma-separated list of URIs for archives containing classes and other resources that will be "preloaded".
• name (optional): This attribute specifies a name for the applet instance, which makes it possible for applets on the same page to find (and communicate with) each other.
• src (optional): The location of the Java object file. It must be a URL value. If the Java object is stored alongside the module, the file name itself can be used.

  Note:

  Starting with version 0.6, the CNXML language does not permit URLs that contain ampersand (&) characters (i.e., http://cnx.org/example?i=1&p=2). Check all object src URLs and replace any ampersands with the entity reference "&amp;". More information can be found on the W3C's page.
• height (optional): The height of the Java applet in pixels.
• width (optional): The width of the Java applet in pixels.
• longdesc (optional): The URL of a file containing a long description of the applet. Not all readers will be able to see your included media in their browser, either due to blindness, low-vision, or an environment that doesn't support the media. Some applets are too complex to describe fully in a few words using the "alt" attribute, however. For applets that are important for understanding the material, use "longdesc" to point to a Web file that contains a full explanation of the applet.
• id (optional): A unique identifier, whose value must begin with a letter and contain only letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores, colons, and/or periods (no spaces).
