    java applet variables: extraction in to php

    hi there,

    well its been 3 days and still i cant find the solution to a problem i have, im on the last bot of a long project and cant seem to get this working. basically i have a signature applet which received a signature from a customer, once signed it should be inserted in to a database where later on i have a php script to write the x ad y co ordinates which are in the database. what i can not seem to do is pass the varible generated bu the applet either to a form to atleast pass it server side so the php script i have can insert it to a database.

    here my code

    [CODEl
    <html>
    <body>
    <h1>Signature Capture</h1>
    <hr>

    <applet name='mysig' code='SigBlock. class' width=301 height=76>
    <param name=text value="Signatur e">
    <param name=font value="Arial">
    <param name=fontsize value=42>
    <param name=fontstyle value="italic">
    <param name=fontx value=10>
    <param name=fonty value=50>
    <param name=appwidth value=200>
    <param name=appheight value=75>
    <param name=linestyle value=2>
    </applet>

    <input type='button' name='sign' value='Sign' onClick='text.v alue=mysig.sign ();'>
    <textarea name='text' cols='65' rows='20' wrap></textarea>

    </body>
    </html>

    Basically at the minute when the signed button is clicked it pops the values in to a text box this is done with out using a form. does any one know how i can either get applet to send it to the server or even get the variable which in this case is called text to be relayed across to a form so i can then maybe submit using a hidden form value of something.

    in essence all i need to do is get the variable to the server for my php script to read the varible which is the co ordinates so i can re create the signature after its been submitted to the data base.

    im at my wits end as i dont know java at all, and yes i know java is client side and php is server....

    can any one help?
