The jsp:plugin tag is replaced by either an <object> or an <embed> tag as appropriate for the
requesting client. The attributes of the jsp:plugin tag provide configuration data for the
presentation of the element as well as the version of the plug-in required. The nspluginurl and
iepluginurl
attributes override the default URL where the plug-in can be downloaded.
The jsp:params element specifies parameters to the applet or JavaBeans component. The
jsp:fallback
element indicates the content to be used by the client browser if the plug-in
cannot be started (either because <object> or <embed> is not supported by the client or because
of some other problem).
If the plug-in can start but the applet or JavaBeans component cannot be found or started, a
plug-in-specific message will be presented to the user, most likely a pop-up window reporting a
ClassNotFoundException
.
