Hi,

The attached patch fixes IcedTea bug 491 "NPPlugin fails loading 
http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/2D/samples/suite/index.html 
Plugin pages" [1]. The java side is prepared to handle java_* tags but 
only in the original <embed> tag sent by the plugin, not in the <param> 
tags (see PluginAppletViewer.parse for the implementation details). So 
instead of passing the java_* parameters as a <param> this patch makes 
sure its passed along as part of the <embed> tag.

In case of duplicates, the java side of the plugin picks java_code over 
code, java_codebase over codebase and so on.

Any comments?

Cheers,
Omair
