Ok, I found some on my own: The object tag can (and probably should) be 
used instead of the applet tag. With the object tag anything works like 
I was used to - text is displayed as intended if Java is disabled.

There is one little drawback: In opera 8 the surrounding HTML layout is 
broken. I had to put the java into a table cell in order to center it. 
Neither a centered div nor a respective setting in the applet (or 
object) tag itself works. This table is not interpreted correctly in 
opera 8. Opera 7 and 9 work ok, hence I think I can ignore the problem ;-)
