Help on Java Plugin

[Rajesh Hegde]

Hi all,
I found a doc from java.sun that talks about applet caching. It needs some java plugin and uses the OBJECT tag. Any one tell me where i can find more info on the OBJECT tag. Also can can one tell me where i can find the lastest plugin for JDK1.3 and how to use it .

The plug in can be found Java^TM Plugins. The easiest way to ensure you have the correct tags is to use the Html Converter which will place the appropriate tags on your page for using the plug-ins. create your html with the standard applet tag and run the converter.
Hope this helps

Thank Carl for the lead that you gave me. But i still seem to have problems.
I am using the java plugin 1.2to make use of the applet caching feature. But when i use the plugin i get a nullpointer exception at sun.net.bhal.bhal.......
Here is my html code.
< OBJECT classid="clsid:E19F9330-3110-11d4-991C-005004D3B3DB"<br /> WIDTH = 750 HEIGHT = 680 NAME = "TXProcurement" codebase="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.2.2/jinstall- 1_2_2-win.cab#Version=1,2,2,0">
< PARAM NAME = CODE VALUE = "pack1.pack2.examlepplet.PmentApplet.class" >
< PARAM NAME = NAME VALUE = "Procurement" >
< PARAM NAME="type" VALUE="application/x-java-applet;jpi-version=1.3.0_01">
< PARAM NAME="scriptable" VALUE="false">
< PARAM NAME = "SHOWSYSTEMMESSAGES" VALUE ="1">
< PARAM NAME = "MAX_NS_MODULES" VALUE ="6">
< PARAM NAME="cache_option" VALUE="Plugin">
< PARAM NAME="cache_archive" VALUE='1.jar,2.jar,3.jar,4.jar'>
< /OBJECT>
Please let me know where i am going wrong.
