getParameter() returns null

[alice dubois]

Hi,

Can I use method getParameter(String) like that ?
"private String      texte;
..
texte = getParameter ("Texte");"

When I do that, getParameter(...) always returns null. Why ?

Here's my file.html:
<applet code=ScrollText.class width=250 height=50 Texte="Hello">
</applet>

Did I forget something ?

Thanks,
Alice
