> Hello,

> I hope you are not angry about this 'direct' request, but I tried to

> but it seems nobody knows about servlet-applet communication.
>
> Here what I did:
> I coded an servlet with database access in the way you does in
> the "JavaServerProgramming" book except the doGet() method.
> Instead I used do Post(). I tested it and it works fine!
>
> Well, I implemented an applet with some TextFields, Choice
> fields and Buttons. I tested the 'GUI-Applet' in InternetExplorer 5
> and Appletviewer and I could navigate with the buttons and the
> init data was shown.
>
> Next step was coding the communication between applet and
> servlet. Within the applet I used an URLConnection the same
> way you does.
>
> The servlet and applet is used to run within our company Intranet.

> Here the problem:
> I tried the communication with Internet Explorer 5 and nothing
> happened. I tried with appletviewer and it worked fine!!!
>
> I use JDK 1.2.2, Windows NT 4, JSDK 2.1

> Do you know what I have to do to solve this problem? Do I have
> to sign the applet? When yes, how?
