I believe it is currently not yet possible to run axis within
an applet. Please correct me if I'm wrong. (Anyone, please!)

I've had this same problem and I've seen it described by serveral
others, but haven't found a solution yet either. The reason why
axis can't be run within a browser is because it is heavily
reliant on commons-discovery and commons-logging, both which
violate the applet's sandbox restrictions when performing file io.
It seems, to get axis working from within an applet in a browser
would require either changes to the 'security.policy' on the client
side, or hacking the axis or commons code itself. The first option
is usually not an option for applications deployed on the web.

This is really too bad, because it seems SOAP would be the optimal
way for an applet to talk back to the server (that it was loaded
from). Much better than rmi, or jmx for multiple www clients.
Doesn't anyone use axis within an applet to talk back to the server?

same basic problem described elsewhere....
