How to call javascript from applet without use showDocument ?

Question

Hi,

I'm using

getAppletContext().showDocument(new URL("javascript:" + command));

to call javascript from applet.

But sometimes in firefox this doen't work, I don't know why.

So, now I'm trying to use JSObject, using this:

    JSObject jsObject = new JSObject();
    jsObject.eval(command);

But I got this error:

Exception in thread "thread applet-com.foo.bar.TestApplet-6"
java.lang.InstantiationError: netscape.javascript.JSObject

Why I'm getting this error?

There is another way to do java applet to javascript communication?

Answer 1

I'm using

JSObject jsObject = JSObject.getWindow(this);
jsObject.eval(....);

And it works now.
