The Java Plug-in Software requires that web page authors make changes to their existing HTML code if they wish to have their Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition v 1.2.2-based applets run using the Java Plug-in Software, rather than the browser’s default Java runtime. While the changes are not trivial, they are not overly complex either. To make this process easy for web page authors, Sun provides the Java Plug-in Software HTML Converter, free of charge, to automate this process. In addition, Sun has provided a detailed specification outlining the HTML changes required to use the Java Plug-in Software, and how web page authors can implement them “by hand”. The Java Plug-in Software HTML Converter can be downloaded from the HTML Converter download page. For the HTML specification, see the Java Plug-in Software HTML Specification.
