General :
An applet has the extention ".class" and must be specified in a ".html"-file. There you specify the applet NAME, WIDTH and HEIGHT. You can also specify the CODEBASE , which is for locating the directory where the applet can find the images or sounds if such are required by the applet. If you put all the files in the same directory as the ".class"- and "html"-file this value is not required. The applets are configured by changing parameter values in the html-file , the general structure is seen below:
WIDTH=230 HEIGHT=190> <PARAM name="myparameter" value="myvalue"> <PARAM name="anotherparameter" value="anothervalue"> </APPLET> |
Fonts :
When you download applets which displays text you will often be able to choose between the platform independent fonts seen in the picture to the right. You will also be able to choose between using "Bold" or "Italic" on all fonts. |
Colors :
Color are choosen from the RGB format like red , blue , green , cyan , white , magenta , yellow..etc. It can be written in such a way:
<BODY TEXT="#FFFFFF" BGCOLOR="000000".......> |
Images and sound
:
Some java-applets requires sound or pictures. The sound files must be in .au-format with a frequency of 8 kHz. The images must be in GIF or JPEG format. Note that the programs accepts transparent GIF 89 images , although some browsers show the transparent areas with some dots. You can chance the sound clip for each applet. Just copy the sound clip file into the same directory , and rename the filename in the source code as for images , links and messages.
