how do I manipulate parameters for an applet runtime?
I mean it is easy to pass parameters in the applet tag with the param name
thing, but how can these parameters be changed runtime?e.g. due to
interaction of hte applet with the outside document, or the outside document
interaction withthe applet...?

thanks for any help

1) JavaScript (reads params from URL and
writes applet tag)
2) JSP (ditto)
3) I beleive LiveConnect or the Netscape API
can also allow the applet to query the URL
directly, but I have never seen it work)
