The Sample code which i writen is as follows.

In the Html code place a button and onclick call funt() function which is defined in the html code.
I placed this code while posting the topic, but it not allowed me to post.so removed the button code from the html code

hi
i know whats wrong but i dont have a solution

in NN we dont get embedded applet into the applets array in javascript. try doing,
document.applets.length, it will give you 0 and in IE it will give you 1.
i'm facing the same problem. i don't know how to make this work...
regards
maulin.
