(NOTE: This plugin was tested with WordPress 3.0.5 but is likely to be compatible with any WordPress after 2.5 including the latest 3.2)
If you've ever tried to embed a Java applet in a post or page by inserting
your usual <applet> or <object> tags, you would have noticed that
WordPress doesn't recognize the tags and the tags disappear. This plugin
supports new shortcodes permitting WordPress to recognize and properly render
the applets.
You can choose among three possible applet-loading modes:
- Inline, loaded immediately.
- Inline, loaded only when the user clicks. This one is great for letting your visitors control whether to load the JVM or not.
- Popup window, loaded only when the user clicks.
You can reference your JAR archive with any full URL, even on another web site. And you can even upload the JAR into WordPress using the Media Library and then reference the JAR file as you would any other image, video, or audio.
Thanks to the integration of Oracle’s Deployment Toolkit , it works for multiple types of browsers and can offer to download the Java Plug-in (this probably needs more testing) or update it if the required JVM version doesn’t match (this feature hasn’t yet been implemented but it easily could be, if there is demand.)
It is based on the great work done by ahmattox on his WordPress Processing Embed. In fact, it works almost exactly the same way and offers the same features.
