Html

Hello everyone

I have placed this in the forum lobby because HTML is not Java related. I would like to use Notepad and HTML to place an applet on the internet. I don't know much about HTML, but I have the following:

Code:

<HTML>
	<HEAD>
		<TITLE>
			Tim's Site
		</TITLE>
	</HEAD>
	<BODY>
		<APPLET CODE = site.Main.class WIDTH = 100 HEIGHT = 100>
		</APPLET>
		<P>
			Test
		</P>
	</BODY>
</HTML>

The applet works but I want it to fit the browser's window. At the moment it is an a 100x100 box.

Thank you

so what happens when you test it without the height= and width= parameters?
Its been a decade since I did serious applet stuf

Applet probably real problem because too small if no size params. Also, current RFC asks that we use an <object ..../> tag, giving identifiers for applets and full how-to

Also, we can pass parameters in the html tag that calls the applet.

I find that handy, I will even use trivial name=value pairs.

If I remove the width and height tags, then the applet is shown in a 192x192 box. Maybe it's some portion of the window size or just a default size. However, the applet is still bounded in a small box.

Hello Nicholas Jordan and fishtoprecords.

I found a solution for my problem:

Code:

<HTML>
	<HEAD>
		<TITLE>
			Tim's Site
		</TITLE>
	</HEAD>
	<BODY>
		<APPLET CODE = site.Main.class WIDTH = "100%" HEIGHT = "100%">
		</APPLET>
		<P>
			Test
		</P>
	</BODY>
</HTML>

Thank you.
