BORDERCOLOR HIGHLIGHTCOLOR		 All Colors are in hexadecimal format 'rrggbb', same as HTML colors format but without # hexadecimal radix symbol. For example, for red color use: FF0000.

DELAY & PAUSE Animation timing parameters in milliseconds.
IMAGE0 .. IMAGEn Image should be enumerated from 0 without missed numbers. This parameter consists of three fields separated by | symbol. These filds are:
ImageName.gif|LinkUrl.html|TargetFrameName

Please, use non-interlaced GIF images only to avoid problems with some buggy browsers which can't handle some subsets of JPG format, by the same reason I recommend to use FULL URL for images and FULL CODEBASE in applet tag.

Meanwhile LinkUrl can be full or relative

Target window to open HTML document. Optional.One can use one of the following:

  • "_top"
  • "_self"
  • "_blank"
  • "_parent"
  • or windowname for frame as it named in frameset HTML tag.
    		•
    URL One can use CGI output or text file as an optional way to pass Image parameters to applet.(relative to Codebase) Each line of this text file have the same format as IMAGEi parameter value. Here, for the curious, is the Example of this file.
