Java Applets usually are started within a web browser and, therefore, require a specific HTML file using the applet tag. The applet tag contains information about the applet itself and the arguments to be passed.
Table 1.1.
The Appletviewer Dialog simplifies the start process for applets since you don't have to write the HTML file yourself. We extract the information from the program in the current editor and show them within a dialog. You may change these settings, save and load them. |
