I thought I only needed this for <object> pieces (like in this thread http://www.webmaster-talk.com/showthread.php?t=26439) but now I also need the information from the thread above for java.

<APPLET ARCHIVE="skeet.jar" CODE="skeet" WIDTH=550 HEIGHT=350></APPLET>

^ this is the <applet> code that's used for the games instead of the <object> codes in the thread above.


I tried this one out:

PHP Code:

<APPLET ARCHIVE="<?=$row[archive]?>" CODE="<?=$row[code]?>" width="<?=$row[width]?>" height="<?=$row[height]?>"></APPLET>

but that one doesn't work, it won't load the java application with this.
it does work when I just fill in the normal information (like the skeet.jar thingy above)

Have you checked the html source that reaches the browser to check that the echoes are working properly?
