The java.net.URLConnection will allow you to open files/connections to a
url and get input/output streams on them (which you con manipulate using
the java.io package). However, you will have to overcome Java's
security model - simplistically, a normal applet can only access/make
connections to the server from which it was downloaded.
There are, I believe ways around this using signed applets and certainly
JDK1.2 has a much more complex and flexible security model but I'm not
an expert in either of these areas.
Good luck
