applet tag replaced with object?

[tonynoriega]

i want to use a webcam feed from another site that is using the applet tag:

<applet code="CaptureClient.class" width="250" height="175">
<param name="image" value="http://example.com/example.jpg" />
<param name="delay" value="5" />
<param name="status" value="2" />
<param name="statusText" value="Next live image in %M:%S" />

<param name="statusTextColor" value="#ffffff" />
<param name="backgroundColor" value="#000000" />
<param name="url" value="http://www.example2.com/example.htm" />
</applet>

my doctype is xhtml 1.0 strict... which according to my research, the <applet> tag does not work...

do i have to replace with object?

can it be that simple?

I think so...

The following is valid HTML4 strict that I first found on A List Apart for embedding a youtube vid

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"  
     data="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fs7veJLwII&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1"  
     width="425" height="344" id="VideoPlayback"> 
  <param   name="movie" 
        value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fs7veJLwII&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1"> 
  <param   name="allowScriptAcess"  
        value="sameDomain"> 
  <param   name="quality"  
        value="best"> 
  <param   name="bgcolor"  
        value="#fff"> 
  <param   name="scale"  
        value="noScale"> 
  <param   name="salign"  
        value="TL"> 
  <param   name="FlashVars"  
        value="playerMode=embedded"> 
</object>

I guess you'll have to replace application/x-shockwave-flash with something else for a webcam feed
