Updating the Java Support on a User's Machine

If you are placing an applet that uses COM on an HTML page accessible from the Internet, you must ensure that any users who encounter that page have a version of the Java Support for Internet Explorer that fully supports Java/COM integration.

To do this, you must insert the following tag on the HTML page containing your applet (or on the introductory page of your Web site): 

<OBJECT 
CLASSID="clsid:08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608500" 
CODEBASE="http://www.microsoft.com/java/IE30Java.cab#Version=1,0,0,1">
</OBJECT>

This tag causes the user's Internet Explorer to check the version of its Java support. If the version installed on the user's machine is not up-to-date, Internet Explorer downloads the latest version of Java support from http://www.microsoft.com and updates the user's machine.
