How do I pass parameters from a JSP to an Applet? I tried several variations of the following: <jsp :plugin type="applet" code="Trans.class" codebase="." jreversion="1.2" width="529" height="342" </jsp :plugin> <jsp :params> <jsp :param name="userId" value="10" /> </jsp :params>

Im not sure I understand your problem. You can use straight html. <applet code="Trans.class" width="529" height="342"> <param name="userId" value="10"> </applet> Unless I just dont understand.
I never took notes in college. That's how I got a 4.0 the first 2 years, and a 3.5 the second two years.

You need to nest the <jsp :params> inside the plugin tag. Judging from the code you posted, you're not. See examples here: http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/tags/11/syntaxref1113.html#8837 To the other respondent, the reason for using the plugin tag instead of straight HTML is that the JSP container is supposed to write browser-specific HTML for you, saving you the effort of doing browser detection and generating different HTML for IE and Netscape. ------------------ Scott Stirling Author of Java Server Pages Application Development [This message has been edited by Scott Stirling (edited March 06, 2001).] [This message has been edited by Jim Yingst (edited March 06, 2001).]

Scott, I see. I have been avoiding the problem of different applet tags for each browser by using java 1 in my applets. I still use html 3.2 mostly also.
