Special Applet Attributes Not Working
===

I'm trying to use some of the special applet attributes.    Specifically:

image
progressbar
boxmessage

None appear to be working.    For example, I tried the progressbar attribute as follows:

	<FORM NAME="CODINGFORM">
			<APPLET NAME="RevApp2" CODE="RevApp2.class" codebase="" id="myapplet"
				name="myapplet" WIDTH="95%" HEIGHT="100%"
				ARCHIVE="CoderDx.jar,xpp3-1.1.3.4.C.jar,xml-apis.jar,jcommon-1.0.16.jar,jfreechart-1.0.13.jar,swingx-1.6.jar,balloontip-1.1.1.jar,artificialmed.jar,log4j-1.2.15.jar,forms.jar">
				<PARAM NAME="URL" VALUE='<c:out value="${ipaddress}"/>'>
				<PARAM NAME="USERID" VALUE='<c:out value="${dxwebtemplate}"/>'>
				<PARAM NAME="PATHNAME" VALUE='<c:out value="${pathname}"/>'>
				<PARAM NAME="SessionID" VALUE='<c:out value="${sessionid}"/>'>
				<PARAM NAME="Role" VALUE='<c:out value="${role}"/>'>
				<PARAM name="progressbar" value="true">
			</APPLET>
		</FORM>

No progress bar appeared.   When I try the image tag.   The coffee cup icon does disappear but it is not replaced with my specified icon.    I also tried the the boxmessage parameter but nothing happened.    

The applet does load but the appearance of the screen prior to the applet loading is not affected by the various parameters I try.     I am using IE 8 with Java 1.6.0_25.    Any ideas about what might be wrong?

Thank you,


Elliott
