Notes & Comments
 
1. test.html is for use with this code - it will expect to find the AppletTag.js when run in a browser
 
2. When run the applet will print a message and display the QTLogo if QT and QTJava are installed       
 
3. See comments in code about this applet

General Comments
 
- QTSession.open and close:
 
A QTSession.open will perform a gestalt check to ensure that QuickTime is present and is initialized. This is a required call before any QuickTime Java classes can be used - it is called first in the init() method
 
It is necessary for programs to call QTSession.close if they have previously called QTSession.open in order to shut down QuickTime properly - it is called in the destroy() method
