PARAM - Parameters for Java applet

This element is also available in our updated HTML 4 reference. Some characteristics may have changed.

Appearance:	<PARAM NAME=x VALUE=y>
Attributes:	NAME=`string` VALUE=`string`
Contents:	None (Empty).
May occur in:	APPLET.

The PARAM element is used to provide "command-line" arguments to a Java applet, which is embedded in a document with the APPLET element. It has two attributes: NAME specifies the name of the argument, and VALUE specifies the value for this argument.

Notes:

In a Java applet, the names of arguments are treated in a case-sensitive manner, so make sure you get the case right in the PARAM tag.
Anyone can take the source of your Java page and change the values you supply for your parameters. Make sure the applet can handle this.
