[Bug 274897] [NEW] Mayscript is not working in FF3.0.3 when trying to access an applet's method

Fri Sep 26 18:04:52 UTC 2008

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Iam working in a Ubuntu Linux 8.04 OS using Firefox 3.0.3 (3.0.3+build1
+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1 0)

Iam trying to access an applet's method via javascript but iam getting a
"is not a function error". I already declared the applet tag with the
mayscript property but is still not working.

 <html><body>
<script>
function getSomeValue(){
	alert(document.myApplet.getValue());
}
</script>
 <applet id="myApplet" name="myApplet" code="TestApplet.class" archive="TestApplet.jar"
           width="325" height="325" mayscript="mayscript">
 </applet>
<input type="button" onclick="getSomeValue()"/>
 </body></html>

///*** Actual error: document.myApplet.getValue is not a function

Is there any way around this problem?
Thanks
