Synopsis

<PARAM>

End Tag: Forbidden

The PARAM element may be nested within an APPLET or OBJECT element to pass parameters to the Java applet or object as it is being loaded. Parameters provide ways for HTML authors to adjust settings of an applet or object without having to recode the applet or object. A parameter typically passes a name/value pair, which is assigned to the NAME and VALUE attributes. You can have more than one PARAM element per applet or object. The documentation for the applet or object should provide you with necessary information to pass those parameter values.

Example

<APPLET CODE="simpleClock.class" NAME="myClock" WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=50>
<PARAM NAME="bgColor" VALUE="black">
<PARAM NAME="fgColor" VALUE="yellow">
</APPLET>
