Hmmm. Can I write an applet that reads form input, processes it, dumps the output to an applet window, and tells the user to cut & paste it into a Netscape mail sending window ? That would be a messier solution than I'd like, but still decent.
Forms and HTML pages are not exposed to Java either. For that you need JavaScript. In a future release when JavaScript and Java can talk to each other you will be able to do what you suggest. --Jeff -- Jeff Weinstein - Electronic Munitions Specialist Netscape Communication Corporation jsw@netscape.com - http://home.netscape.com/people/jsw Any opinions expressed above are mine.
