The reason is that you're generating the "param" tags using a scriptlet.
This doesn't work because they need to be seen by the JSP container when
it translates the JSP page into a servlet. Besides, the element you should
use within the <jsp:params> element is <jsp:param>, not <param>.
You need to do something like this instead:
<jsp:plugin type="applet" ......>
<jsp:params>
<jsp:param name="<%= pname[0] %>" value="<%= rec[0] %>" />
<jsp:param name="<%= pname[1] %>" value="<%= rec[1] %>" />
...
<jsp:param name="<%= pname[9] %>" value="<%= rec[9] %>" />
</jsp:params>
</jsp:plugin>
This assumes that there's always 10 elements in the array and that
each element has a non-null value. Otherwise you have to check for
null values in the expression as well, e.g.
<%= (pname[0] == null ? "" : pname[0]) %>
