How the HTML Converter affects an HTML file
- It inserts HTML comments to show where the conversion begins and ends.
- It converts the APPLET tag to the OBJECT and EMBED tags that are used by the Internet Explorer and Netscape browsers, respectively.
- It stores the original APPLET tag within an HTML comment.
- It uses capital letters for attributes that were coded in the original APPLET tag and lowercase letters for other tags that were generated.
