Attribute for <APPLET ...>
CODE = "text string"

CODE gives the file name of the applet to run. For example, this code says to use the applet "MyApplet.class":

this code produces this 
<APPLET CODE="MyApplet.class" WIDTH=100 HEIGHT=100>
<PARAM NAME=TEXT VALUE="Hi There">
<P>Hi There<P>
</APPLET>

Hi There

If the class file is in a different directory than your HTML file, only give the file name, not the path. Use CODEBASE to give the path.

WRONG RIGHT 
<APPLET 
     CODE="../graphics/MyApplet.class"
     WIDTH=100 HEIGHT=100>

<APPLET 
     CODE="MyApplet.class"
     CODEBASE="../graphics/"
     WIDTH=100 HEIGHT=100>
(doesn't work)

Hi There
