Applets: APPLET (absolute height)

This test case tests the <applet> tag with its mandatory height attribute which, similar to the <img> tag, explicitly specifies the height of the java applet. The height attribute can either be an absolute height using an integer value of pixels or a relative height using a relative percentage value.

Test Instructions

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

Test Case #1: sample java applet dimension scaling using absolute heights
(using <applet codebase=class pathname code="class name" height=integer value> </applet>)

Java Applet Dimensions Scaled Down (Reverse Scaling)

Original applet

Object height="65"

Object height="50"

Applet height="25"

Applet height="15"
