Applet communicating with browser

Hi,

I'm pretty new to Java, so please excuse what may possibly be a dumb question.

I'm wanting to build a list of values from a database select, where a small browser window is opened from the current browser window. This small browser window will have the applet inside it, displaying the list of values, with find functionality, etc.

My problem is that when a value is selected in the applet, I can't see a way to set the value in a text field back in the original browser, and to close the newly opened browser.

Parameter values can of course be passed in to the applet, but how to pass them back, and return control to the browser, such as firing JavaScript, etc?

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Michael Carroll.
