Re: JavaScript to Java Applet Communications

[Gordon McComb <gmccomb@ix.netcom.com>]

The only thing you can do with a JavaScript-to-Java connection is to write
an <applet> tag using the document.write method -- essentially generating
the require Java applet instructions on the fly.  You pretty much are
restricted to doing this in a single window only, or from within the same
frame, as there's a Java-related bug that prevents you from writing output
to another frame that creates the Java applet.
