  • Article

C0020:

The specification states:

 archive = uri-list [CT]
  
 The classes are loaded using an instance of an AppletClassLoader with the given 
 codebase. Relative URIs for archives are interpreted with respect to the applet's 
 codebase.

All Document Modes (All Versions)

The archive attribute is ignored.

V0088:

The specification states:

 object = cdata [CS]
  
 This attribute names a resource containing a serialized representation of an 
 applet's state. It is interpreted relative to the applet's codebase.

All Document Modes (All Versions)

 The object attribute is ignored.

C0021:

The specification states:

 When the applet is "deserialized" the start() method is invoked but not the init() 
 method.

All Document Modes (All Versions)

This decision is delegated to Java (or an equivalent plug-in), which chooses whether to call start() or init().
