Java to submit forms on a web page

I have never used Java before, but may do so for a project I am working on at the moment. Can anybody tell me if you can use Java to submit a form to another target page (i.e. Java applet [a menu system] is in another frame).

Also, would there be any compatibility issues with various browsers that I should be aware of?

Hope you can help.

Cheers.

Using "javac form.java" at the command prompt I get the following errors:

form.java:2: Package netscape.javascript not found in import"

form.java:3: Package netscape.javascript not found in import"

form.java:5: "Superclass Applet of class MyClass not found. class MyClass extends Applet {"

form.java:7: Type expected.

Also - will this work in IE browsers?

Do I need to include the following:

import java.applet.Applet;
import java.applet.AppletContext;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

aswell?

Cheers,

Ben.
