Hello....
Here's a question I found on a mock exam:
Q) What tags are mandatory when creating HTML to display an applet
Select most appropriate answer.
a) name, height, width
b) code, name
c) codebase, height, width
d) code, height, width
e) None of the above
The answer given is C..... But I think it should be D....
Any inputs???

Hi Shafeeq Sheikh,
IMO u shoul have not written why it should be d and not c. Based on this i could have told u how u r logic if false. The correct answer is obvioulsly c.
u need to specify what the java applet class file which is done through
< applet code=rahul.class
then u need to specify what height and width it would occupy
< applet code=rahul.class height=200 width=200>< /applet >
thus the code, height and width are absolutely necessary to specify in html file

Hi Rahul,
You yourself are using only code, width and height in the tags, which implies the answer to be D, but still you are insisting that the answer is C. Can you tell me what I'm missing over here?
Thanks,
Aman

CODBASE----Used to define an alternate URL for the location of the class file.
Clear? Alternate!

Hi James, Rahul.....
The question asks for the mandatory tags to be used in an applet.
As far as I know CODEBASE is not mandatory...... and as James pointed out that it is an "alternate" form of specifying the location of the class file.
This is why I thought answer D is correct and not C.
By the way the question is from Sarga.com
Any thoughts???
Thanks,
Shafeeq

Yes. Rahul just misread the letter options I think. We all agree that CODE is required; CODEBASE is not.
