HTML <applet> tag (Not supported in HTML5)

HTML <applet> tag was used to embed the Java applet in an HTML document. This element has been deprecated in HTML 4.0 and instead of it we can use <object> and newly added element <embed>.

The use of Java applet is also deprecated, and most browsers do not support the use of plugins.

Syntax:

<applet code="URL" height="200" width="100">.............</applet>

Following are some specifications about <applet> tag

Display	Block
Start tag/End tag	Both Start tag and End tag
Usage	Embed Applets

Example:

<html>  
<head>

 </head>  
 <body>
