[JSP:PLUGIN] Applet in JSP using wrong version

[Sam Seaver]

OK, in my normal html file, which I use to run my applet, I have version 1.4 of the JRE coded in, and the java plug-in works well, and the applet is fine.

<OBJECT
classid = "clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"
codebase = "http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,4,0,0";
WIDTH = 400 HEIGHT = 400 >
<PARAM NAME = CODE VALUE = Graphica >
<PARAM NAME = "type" VALUE = "application/x-java-applet;version=1.4">
<PARAM NAME = "scriptable" VALUE = "false">
<PARAM NAME = bonds VALUE="M-I,Q-P,E-R,M-L">

<COMMENT>
<EMBED
type = "application/x-java-applet;version=1.4"
CODE = Graphica
WIDTH = 400
HEIGHT = 400
bonds ="M-I,Q-P,E-R,M-L"
file ="bonds/1IQ5_AB.xml"
scriptable = false
pluginspage = "http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/index.html#download";>
<NOEMBED>
alt="Your browser understands the &lt;APPLET&gt; tag but isn't running the applet, for some reason."
Your browser is completely ignoring the &lt;APPLET&gt; tag!
</NOEMBED>
</EMBED>

However, I want to pass some parameters from a JSP page, so I changed the initial html page to a jsp page, and embedded the applet as a simple <jsp:plugin> The applet would not run, and i looked at the html source, and here's the difference:
<object classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" width="400" height="400" codebase="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.2.2/jinstall-1_2_2-win.cab#Version=1,2,2,0";>
<param name="java_code" value="Graphica">
<param name="type" value="application/x-java-applet;">
<param name="bonds" value="M-I,Q-P,E-R,M-L">
<COMMENT>
<embed type="application/x-java-applet;" width="400" height="400" pluginspage="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/"; java_code="Graphica"
name="bonds" value="M-I,Q-P,E-R,M-L"

<noembed>

</object>

basically, the jsp:plugin only translates into JRE version 1.2!! Is this a common knowledge of jsp, or is there something i can change, with tomcat perhaps, to get it to do the right applet version?

cheers
