You can use js to applet communication transparently....
Netscape will use liveConnect and explorer activeX to do js to applet communication
but you
don't have to worry about that...
You'll need to code a getter method in your applet which will return the string..eg
----------------
private String str;
public String getString(){
return str
}
----------
and in js, you would go:
--------
<script language=javascript>
var str=appletname.getString();
</script>
---------
where appletname is the name you gave the applet in the <applet> tag....
(In fact, you can use java constructs directly in javaScript tags.. eg
System.out.println("test") ;)
I know this works in netscape and explorer v.4+ but not sure about earlier versions...
hope this helps
jesper,
