HTML tag Object: PARAM Attribute test

OBJECT (PARAM)

This test case tests the <APPLET> tag with its optional <PARAM> tag which provides a method for applets to get input from the HTML file containing an <APPLET> tag through the use of applet parameters. In the HTML file that contains the embedded applet, each parameter is indicated by using the <PARAM> tag with its two attributes NAME and VALUE. The <PARAM> tag goes inside the opening and closing <APPLET> tag.

Test Instructions:

  1. Verify that the samples display correctly for the following test case.
  2. Verify that the java applet is maintained when you minimize/maximize the screen.
  3. Verify that the java applet is maintained when you re-size left & right the screen.
  4. Verify that the java applet is maintained when you re-size top & bottom the screen.
  5. Verify re-draw takes place correctly after maximizing the screen.
  6. Verify reload works.

Test Case: sample java applet with different param values.

Sample 1. "Jitter Text" applet with a set of parameters values:



<object codebase="." classid="java:JitterText.class" width=400 height=80>

    <param name=BGCOLOR value="000000">

    <param name=TEXTCOLOR value="FF0000">

    <param name=TEXT value="OJITesting!">

    <param name=SPEED value="250">

    <param name=RANDOMCOLOR value=1>

</object>

Sample 2. "Jitter Text" applet with a different set of parameters values:



<object codebase="." classid="java:JitterText.class" width=450 height=50>

    <param name=BGCOLOR value="000000">

    <param name=TEXTCOLOR value="FF0000">

    <param name=TEXT value="Welcome to Raptor!">

    <param name=SPEED value="300">

</object>
