For my comments below, this works fine using JRE 1.4, so the <OBJECT> tag is supported in IE 6... My proglem appears to be only when using the 1.3 plug-in.... The text below was my original problem...
Im attempting to run a simple hello world applet in IE 6.0.8... The applet doesn't crash with any errors, but it also does not display the window 400x400 with any "Hello World" text in it. Im using JAVA 2 (1.3) plug-in with the converted html which uses the <OBJECT> tag.
Note: This works fine when I use the <APPLET> tag and also do NOT use the JAVA 1.3 plug-in. My 400 x 400 screen shows with "hello world" in it.
Reading the documention from the Sun Plug-in page, I noticed the following text and was wondering if IE version 6 may not support the <OBJECT> tag. Does anyone know if Version 6 or higer is supposed to support the <OBJECT> tag to run applets with the JAVA 1.3 plug-in? The following is the text on the sun site.
