Answer 1

Well, be aware that deployJava.js is designed to be called at document load time. So if you insert applet dynamically, upon an event, after DOM has been constructed, you're kinda out of luck with this new standard approach. We had to use the object/embed/noembed construct.

Edit: Oh, someone found a better way for this, but this required manual altering of SUN's original deployJava.js, please see the link below: Java Plug-In - Important addition to deployJava.js
