How to transmit data from textarea-HTML to an Applet on MAC OS

Hi, i'm writing an applet and I would like to use in my applet the data coming from a textarea of the same html page and at the end of my applet, i want to update this textarea.
I'm working on MAC OS (LiveConnect doesn't work).
Java-Javascript :
I've tried the system of invisible frame with javascript that i've found at this address: http://www.rgagnon.com/ce/java-js.html, but the data are transmitted via the url (by means of the get method) and i've too much data to move. I've tried to post the data to a cgi script and i've used the showDocument method but i can't get the data that i've posted.
Javascript-Java :
I've tried the solution given at the same address but it doesn't work at all because : 1) the method getDocumentBase() doesn't gives the parameters 2) it still uses the get method.
I would appreciate any help.

If i include the textarea in my applet, I'll have many web sites (which are already working with an embedded texarea) to update.
and to be very accurate, the textarea is in another page and my applet is "alone" in a pop-up window.

How to retrieve data from the HTML form in the JEditorPane?

I could quite easily use JEditorPane to render and display a simple HTML file.
My HTML looks like this:
<html>
<head>
<title> simple form</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="cccccc">
<center><h1>SURVEY THING</h1>
</center>
<form id="survey">
<p>1.Type something in.</p>
<textarea cols=25 rows=8>
</textarea>
<BR>
<p>2.Pick ONLY one.</p>
<input type="radio" name="thing" value="0" Checked> NO choice <BR>
<input type="radio" name="thing" value="1"> First choice <BR>
<input type="radio" name="thing" value="2"> Second choice
<BR>
<p>3.Pick all you like.</p>
<input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="A"> A <BR>
<input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="B"> B <BR>
<input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="C"> C <BR>
<input type="submit" value="give data">
<input type="reset" value="do clensing">
</form>
</body>
</html>
It gets diplayed fine and I can type in text, select radio buttons (they behave mutualy-exclusive,
as they should) and check checkboxes.
The problem I have is with retrieving the values which were entered into the form.
If I, after editing, try to write the html to the file using HTMLWriter,
it records the changes I made into the textarea, however all the radio and checkbox selections are lost.
Maybe the problem is that when I enter the values I do not use any methods like
insertBeforeStart and so on, but I believe I shouldn't need to use them to populate a form.
Especially I never change the structure of the HTML.
Also, when I try to traverse the Element tree and see the input elements attributes,
I can never see a change in the entered values. However it is probably b/c I am traversing through
the model and the changes are in the view (just a guess.)
Anyway, if anybody could direct me onto the right path: how to retrieve the values typed in the form,
or if it is possible at all in the JEditorPane, I would greatly appreciate.
thanks

PS. I have seen the answer to a similar question posted some time last year. However, I am trying
to find a soultion which allows forms/surveys to be built by people who have no java and only basic
html knwledge. And Axualize way is probably a little bit too "high-tech."

Maybe helpful for u.

How to read data from PC format external disk, using Labview MAC

Hi folks,
For years I have not been able to read data files from a PC formatted (created) external disk, using Labview for Mac. More specifically:
- I have Labview 7.01 running on OS X 10.4.11 on a PowerBook G4
- I have a 500GB external USB/firewire disk that was formatted on a PC and has data files (custom format) that were created on the PC. I believe that C code actually creates the files, but Labview 7/PC opens the files and appends some info (I don't think the fact that C or Labview touches the files is actually relevant to this issue though).
- I can connect the 500 GB disk to my mac, and it will mount just fine and OS X can see all of the data files (and anything else on the disk).
- if I use my Labview app to open and read a data file it fails:
- open/create/replace.vi (with read-only access) shows a file dialog window that lets me navigate to any file on the external disk.
- but, the vi returns an error 7
- if I use OS X to copy the data file to my Mac disk, my Labview app works fine.
So, does anyone know if:
- I'm just doing something wrong in my Mac Labview app?
- Labview 7.x solves this problem?
- Labview 8/Mac solves this problem?
- OS X 10.5 solves this problem; with Labview 7 or 8; or does OS X 10.5 worsen the problem?
Thanks, in advance...

Hi kehander,
Thanks for the reply. I tried filling a constant path with the Mac-defined path to a data file on the USB disk (ie "DATA2:file1.dat"). This resulted in the same error message.
I then considered that maybe I was misinterpreting the LV error message, and that perhaps I was supposed to address the file using PC-notation (ie. "DATA2\file1.dat"), even though the app is running on a Mac. No joy with this, but I get a different error msg:
"Error 1430 occurred at Open File
Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: The path is empty or relative. You must use an absolute path."
Can you share what your reasoning was for your suggestion... I'm not sure I understand why a constant path would produce different results?

How to retrieve input data from a HTML form in the UTF-8 cha

I encountered the following problem with a JWeb Application:
I tried to write a JWeb-Application for OAS 4.0, that retrieves
input data from a HTML form and writes it into an Oracle
database.
All processing should be done in the UTF-8 character set.
The problem is, that the form data retrieved by getURLParameter
are always encoded in a non-unicode character set and I found no
way to change this.
Can anybody tell me what I should do to get the form data in the
UTF-8 character set?

Hi
Try set in the JWEB application's Java environment such
SYSTEM_PROPERTY: file.encoding=UTF8.

How to put datas from database in html�s forms?

Does anyone have any idea how to put datas from the database using JSP???

One option: put your data into a JavaBean and then put that into the session. You can then access it from your JSP. You can access the properties of the bean using the basic JSP scripting elements, or if you want to get fancy, both JSTL and Struts have a bunch of custom tags for working with JavaBeans.

Inserting data from Textarea into database

I am collecting data from a html form which has textarea and processing it through servlet.
If I enter text in textarea without breaks(without pressing enter tab) it is being collected and correctly put into database.
If I enter text with breaks (with pressing enter tabs for entering in separate lines) it is being collected correctly but only one line goes into database.

Can u please look at this another problem:
I have a keyword and need to search against a table containing 100 fileds.
