For example, if I had a link on a page, the user clicks the link and my

You will need something on ther server side accepting the input from the
applet. Like a servlet or a CGI or something. Would it be possible, if
not easier, to not use an applet for user input and instead use an HTML

If you're using Netscape, you can use LiveConnect to talk to JavaScript

In your applet you'll need to do something like this:

I don't think an Applet can access the form properties directly, but you can
