Hi, I was trying to pass a string variable in _java_script__ :: <PARAM NAME=input VALUE= valPass() and get the string in Java s2 = getParameter( input ); but s2 turns out to be valPass() and not the actual string. I was wondering if what I'm trying to do is possible and how to do it? Tag attributes other than _java_script__ event handlers won't do any _java_script__ evaluation, so the VALUE tag function call is treated as a string. To accomplish what you're trying here requires putting the entire <PARAM tag in a _java_script__ document.write() statement, concatenating the tag strings and values. E.g.: <_applet_ ... <_script_ LANGUAGE= _java_script__ document.write( <PARAM NAME=input VALUE=' + valPass() + ' ) </_script_ <PARAM ... Danny Danny Goodman's _java_script__ Handbook
