re: parameters in java

[Azhar Khan <ak...@amazon.com>]

I am trying to pass parameters to an applet via a .html file
So here's my html code

<APPLET
  CODE = "orgchart2.labels"
  CODEBASE = "javaclasses"
  WIDTH = "600"
  HEIGHT = "600"
  >
  <PARAM NAME = "top_panel_size" VALUE = "3" >
  <PARAM NAME = "top_panel_elements_0" VALUE = "one" >
  <PARAM NAME = "top_panel_elements_1" VALUE = "two" >
  <PARAM NAME = "top_panel_elements_2" VALUE = "three" >
</APPLET>

And in my .java file for applet i'm trying to retrieve these parameters.  I
can however, retrieve all the values but when i try to retrieve the value
for "top_panel_size" i am getting this error

java.lang.NumberFormatException: null
	at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:373)
	at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:454)
	at orgchart2.labels.init(labels.java:28)
	at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(AppletPanel.java:344)
	at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484)
***************************************************************MY .JAVA FILE
CODE

int size = Integer.parseInt(getParameter("top_panel_size"));


Thanks.
