Help with embedding movies and java applets

[4409723]

Just been working on a little project for university and doing some research. We are incorporating some java applets and a couple of movies. We have a page of demos, so rather than bog down the users webpage by loading them all is there a way to have say an image preview of the applet and then have the applet load when the user clicks the image?

Thanks for any help!

EDIT: Sorted my problem out with the embedding of movies, just java applets now.

Well, you could have a javascript that will loads the applet once the image is clicked, e.g

function loadapplet() {
    document.getElementBy['div_holder'].innerHTML = '<APPLET id="appletname" name="appletname" code="applet.class" mayscript archive="applet.jar" width="100" height="100">'
}

on the image tag

<img src="ppp.jpg" onClick="loadapplet()" style="cursor:pointer;" />

Did not test it yet, but technically, it should work.
