I don't know why Oracle says that you need different syntaxes for IE and other
browsers (that probably applied to old versions of the HTML spec and browsers),
since e.g. the following syntax works for me with IE, Firefox and Chrome (which
is also given as a example in the current HTML5 spec [1]):
<object type="application/x-java-applet">
<param name="code" value="mypackage.MyClass" />
<param name="archive" value="MyJarFile.jar" />
<param name="java_arguments" value="-Dsun.java2d.d3d=false" />
Your don't have the Java plugin installed...
</object>
However, I would recommend the <embed> element because it allows Browsers to
display a specific error message when the Java plugin is not installed:
<embed type="application/x-java-applet" code="mypackage.MyClass"
archive="MyJarFile.jar" java_arguments="-Dsun.java2d.d3d=false" />
