Using to call an Applet method........

I'm using the <trh:script> tag to call an applet method and it 
creates this error. (document.applets[0].rebuildChartUsingCurrentData 
is not a function ).

This is how I'm using it:
<trh:script text="function updateApplet()
  {document.applets[0].rebuildChartUsingCurrentData();}" />

The document.applets[0].rebuildChartUsingCurrentData(); works when 
not in a Trinidad/JSF page. The updateApplet() is called on an onClick event

<tr:commandButton text="Test Button"
                       id="mybutton"
                       partialSubmit="true"
                       actionListener="#{lotBean.doSomething}"
                       partialTriggers="mybutton"
                       onclick="updateApplet()"/>

I've tried it without success using just a script tag as well. Is 
there some limitation that prevents the <trh> tag from accessing 
applets? Is there some other way of doing this inside a jsf page?

Thanks
Al

Yes, it has. The test button would only be clicked after the applet 
has completed its init. Is there a reason the <trh:script> won't call 
an applet method? I've even tried giving the applet tag a name and id.

Any other tags to use or other ways of making this work?

Thanks

Has the applet had a chance to initialize when the script is run?
