Passing data from Javascripts to Applets

Question

Hi,
I've wrote a small applet for lists but when I try to pass data from my
JavaScript to my applet, I get an "Error: Object doesn't support this property or method". I get this error with a select other sites including the page I'm writing, leading me to believe I may not have installed requried files or set required options, though I've checked my settings . I've included the listing of the code snippet where the error occurs.
document.listApplet.testMethod()OR when I use:
document.applet(listApplet).testMethod()The applet is loaded by this statement:
<OBJECT CODE="CustomAppletList" NAME="listApplet" ID="listApplet" WIDTH="1000" HEIGHT="600"></OBJECT>and loads fine but the error persists when attempting to call public method in my applet. Can anyone suggest ideas how I can successfully pass data from my JavaScripts to my applets?

Hi,
Thnx for the reply. I've tried as you suggested and modified my <OBJECT> line to:
<OBJECT CODE="CustomAppletList.class" NAME="listApplet" ID="listApplet" WIDTH="1000" HEIGHT="600">
<PARAM NAME="scriptable" VALUE="true"></PARAM>
</OBJECT>But the error persists. I'm using IE6. I did not have such errors with IE5.
I use the following code to test the applet tag I assigned at each step:
                    if (document.listApplet) {
                         document.write ("Applet Object (document.listApplet) exists.")
                    } else {
                         return
                    if (document.listApplet.object) {
                         document.write ("Applet Object (document.listApplet.object) exists.")
                    } else {
                         return
                    if (document.listApplet.object.testMethod) {
                         document.write ("Method textMethod() in applet has been validated and exists!")
                    } else {
                         document.write ("[2]")
                         return
               document.write ("[11]")The debugging info from this code at the end of the html document I'm writing is:
[1]Applet Object (document.viewer) exists.Applet Object (document.viewer.object) exists.[2][11]
