HashTable usage

[Tve]

Hi,

I'm trying to update an applet in HTML using javascript.

According to documentation, I can pass the parameters as a Hashtable object which doesn't seem a bad idea.

This may seem trivial, but I'm not really a javascript programmer, but more a perl/php guy. When I try to construct the object as specified in the documentation
( Hashtable numbers = new Hashtable(); ), I get an error from IE:

Expected ';'

I am guesting that I should import a module or something, but I cannot get this to work. I've searched on internet, but not really found something I can use.

Sorry to bother you with this simple question.

PS: this is a link to the applet doc:

There is no HashTable in JavaScript. They must be referring to Java.

The first line of the doc clearly says:

"This java table"

Java and JavaScript are totally different beasts... If you're not aware of the difference, I'm surprised you're attempting to program in either of them ;o)

Dan,

I am aware that there are differences between the two.

Nevertheless, the applet does run in HTML and other all methods do work fine, except this HashTable thing.

Well, if you still want to use JavaScript, you could probably get away with using document.write() to add the parameter tags if you wanted to.
