call applet method with javascript

my html - code:

<APPLET NAME="Mail" ... ... ></APPLET>

<form action="javascript:document.applets("Mail").test("Execute JAVA Applet Function")">

<input type="submit" value="Execute Applet Function">

</form>

my applet code:

public void test(String t)

{System.out.println("executing test()");

teststr = t;
