I wrote an applet which needs a cookie-value located on the parent html
file.  Does anyone know how I could pass this value on to the applet.  I
tried:
<applet code=..........>
<param name=cookieVal   value=GetCookie() >
OR
<param name=cookieVal   value=userName>

where GetCookie() is a java script method defined earlier which returns the
cookie value, and userName is a java script variable defined earlier which
is the cookie value.  But this stores "GetCookie()" and "userName"
respectively as the parameter instead of the actual return value of the
function/variable.  I guess my question is, then, how you can call a script
function/variable from HTML.

Any help would be much appreciated.
