I have a question about the capabilities of a java applet. I would like to know if it is possible to set any "param" values in a HTML from within a java applet.
I basically want to have a form in an applet, which when posted, saves the answers as params in the HTML page.
I just need the code which goes in the applet, to write the params to the HTML document.
I am not sure if this is possible due to the limited capabilities of Applets due to security.
Thanks in advance!

I'm not an expert on Applets, but you could do this by getting the form to submit to a server side script (such as PHP) which would output the HTML dynamically, writing the params on the fly.

Thanks David but we are using HTML forms and perl at the moment which write the params to a DB and then the pages are created dynamically with all the previous params as hidden values.
I was just wanting to do this using Applets insted of HTML forms.
I am starting to think that this is impossible as I can´t find anything on the internet about Applets passing params to HTML.

you can have the applet call a javascript function with parameters, so from javascript you set form hidden (or not hidden) parameters.

Thanks for replying overload but that was an old post and I have solved the problem since then.
Cheers 4 now.
