Java Swing package (which is part of Java 2) has support for displaying HTML
3.2 Documents. It includes limited support for <object> tag, as well as
image maps. Look at javax.swing.text.html documentation for more
information.

Generally, <object> tag's classid attribute is used to specify what java
class should be loaded by the API to dipslay the content. Here is an
example:

<object classid="javax.swing.JLabel">
<param name="text" value="sample text">
</object>


In your case I suppose you should create some class which is capable of
displaying QT Movies and extends (may be not directly) java.awt.Component.
So your HTML code will look somehow like this:

<object classid="com.acme.QuickTimePlayer"></object>
