Canonical way to include an applet

What is the canonical way to include the Applet?

I have tried,

Switch on Browsers in JS.

http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/using_tags.html#javascript

This breaks in Safari 5.0.1 on Leopard. (It worked on Safari on Snow leopard.)

Since we are not supporting old brosers, I assumed I could just use <object> tag, but apparently FF wont respect that.

What is the canonical way to do this?

The applet tag seems like a reasonable compromise, but I've migrated almost entirely to Java Web Start.

Addendum: A passerby notes,

JWS is a technology for launching desktop apps.

From the Java SE 6u10 release notes: "The next-generation Java Plug-In technology…provides support for launching applets directly from JNLP files."
