How to pass an html variable as an applet value

[fred]

I have problems when I want to pass a variable defined in an HTML page as an APPLET value.

This is my code

Code:

var username
var password
<APPLET
<param name="username" value=username-variable
<param name="password" value=username-variable
</APPLET>

Any ideas?

hmmm
JavaScript part needs <script> tag even though they can't be used from Applet elements.
read the documentation
