Find out what communication method talking between applet-servlet.
if http protocol then you have to load the applet in the internet explorer,
where you point to http://localhost:8080/applet.html this should load your
applet.

Also, when finding out what your server address, by using getCodeBase()
rather then localhost. .e.g. URL url = new URL(getCodeBase(),
"/servlet/DbApplet");
this way when you have to test in a remote system, it still work...I got
trape using localhost in the applet code, and spend ages trying to figure it
out, it is not easyly debug, esspecially when it is compile into *.class
files.

Cheers,
