passing parameter from html page to an application

[praveen benna]

Hello!
The Problem is..
I need to invoke the application thru java webstart(via JNLP file).Now i have an html page which contains a link to trigger the JNLP file and hence the application.Before launching the application i need to vaildate the user.How can i pass these parameters(user name and password) to application so that i can validate before launching the application

I think your approach is some what not right,
Authenticate the user using jsp or sevlets before he launches your jnlp file,
or authenticate using swing after your gui starts,

placing the user name and password in your html file and passing them as params to your jnlp file is something strange and not well thought out

and more over you cannot pass params to you jnlp file from html, they have to be placed inside your jnlp file

hope that helps
