HTML <param> tag
Function:
The HTML <param> tag is used for passing parameters to an embedded object using <object> tag.
Difference between HTML and XHTML:
In HTML the <param> tag has no end tag.
In XHTML the <param> tag must be properly closed.
Example:
<object title="Test Object." classid="java.class">
<param name="audio" value="music.wav" />
<param name="width" value="600" />
<param name="height" value="400" />
</object>
