Excepting varibales in Java

[Magnus_Lei]

This is a java question. I want a user to come to my we page enter some information into a webpage check the information thourgh javascript and then pass the variables to a java class file.

How does one do this?

Im not sure im making any sense so if im not let me know!

I'd do it through perl (but thats coz i know hardly any javascript)... then you could just change the path of the applet to include the variables.

You may have more luck asking in the Javascript forum.

Do you mean to say that you want to pass the variables to a method in a Java class? If so, then pass them in a parameter list like you would pass them to another JavaScript function.

Here are the pertinent snippets from a web page that I recently created. They are from a socket applet and the web page's html & JavaScript.

// the java method
  public String sendRequest(String requestRec)

   {
    // connect to the host & send request
    if (send2Host(requestRec) == statusFailed)
       {
        return (errMsg);
       }

    return (replyRec);
   }

// the calling JavaScript
      repRec = document.w2hsocket.sendRequest(reqRec);

// the html applet tag
    <APPLET NAME="w2hsocket" CODE="wclient.class" HEIGHT="1" WIDTH="1"></APPLET>
