determining when an applet is running via javascript

[David Haga]

How can I query an applet from Javascript to determine when it is
running? I need to start a second applet but only when I know the first
applet is completely loaded, initialized and executing.

I think applets have a method
isActive
so with
<applet name="appletNam e"
you can check
if (document.apple ts && document.applet s.appletName &&
document.applet s.appletName.is Active()) {
...
}

There is no need for using JavaScript. Applets can see eachother in the
Virtual Machine. Example code can be foudn at sun's applets howto.
