Q757 Can JavaScript call a Java function (as opposed to a Java class using the applet tag)?

Yes it can, but the applet has to be loaded at the time of calling the Java function. Use the NAME attribute of the <applet> tag, for example:

document.applets("myAppletname").myFunction()

This does not always work.
