If applicable add a codebase option. To estimate the minimum height for the applet use the following formula: 
Let m be the maximum number of tails for a given head. Let n be the number of heads to be displayed for these tails. Then height=(m+n)*fontpointsize*1.5. This formula assumes that all content lines are displayed in one line. 
The archive tag is optional and specifies a zip or jar file containing the class files.
