To speed up the HTML Help Java Applet download time

  1. Place all the required class and image files into a cabinet (.cab) file if Microsoft Internet Explorer is the target browser, or a .zip file if Netscape Navigator is the target browser.

  2. Use the following syntax:

    <APPLET archive="HHCtrl.zip" code="HHCtrl.class" width=200 height=200 codebase="code base">
<PARAM name="Command" value="command type">
<PARAM name="Item1" value="text data">
<PARAM name="Cabbase" value="HHCtrl.cab">
</APPLET>

Notes

  • Microsoft Internet Explorer lets you specify a CABBASE parameter with the name of a .cab file. A .cab file is a compressed archive containing your class files.
  • Netscape Navigator uses an ARCHIVE parameter with the <APPLET> tag, and an uncompressed .zip file as an archive.
