Topic awaiting preservation: Java applets and the object tag

I had a question about Java applets in IE. According to the Java tutorials I should use the applet tag, but it's deprecated in HTML 4.0. According to the W3C I should use the ojbect tag. Here's the actual problem. The object tag doesn't have a "code" attribute, but if I use the W3C's version (codetype and classid attributes) it doesn't work in IE. If I use the code attribute anyway it works in IE but not Mozilla, etc.

Anyone know what I can use that actually works on all (or at least most) browsers?

Thanks!

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

Perfect. Thanks!

I was just looking for that exact thing the last couple days.
Here's a page I found quite useful for it, in case anyone is interested a little more on the why: http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.2/docs/tags.html

has anyone noticed problems with Opera 6 mapping the applet and reporting errors when using the new object and embed tags?
