Modifying the Marquee using paremeters

This example will show how the applet can be modified by changing the html-file which runs the applet. The <applet>-tag in the html-file can contain parameters which guide the applet.

The parameters can be given in the applet tag as follows

<applet code=marquee.class width=330 height=170> 
<param name=message value="My Marquee"> 
<param name=font value=Courier> 
<param name=point_size value=30> 
</applet> 

The parameters are examined in the init - function of the applet

The parameters are used in the paint - function.
