Hi all !

I'm writting an application that uses the NCSA Portfolio loader. It's working fine 
from the command line but gives security exceptions if I try to run it as an applet 
with a navigator. I also tried to configure the java.policy file to grant all 
permission, or FilePermission, for the files but it doesn't work.

For example, the applet is located at C:\Java\Source\Test. Its name is 
DisplayApplet.class. The HTML file that opens it is DisplayApplet.html. This applet 
has to read the 'portfolio.properties' file, and afterwards an obj file. I have 
configured the policy.file with several entries:

     Codebase: 'file://C:/Java/Source/test/-' or 
'file://C:/Java/Source/test/DisplayApplet.html'
     Permission entries:  File Permission: AllPermission or FilePermission  
TargetName: portfolio.properties or the .obj file            Entries: read

But nothing of this works. I save the java.policy file in the directory where the JRE 
is installed: C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3\lib\security.

What am I doing wrong ? Or the only way to test fileloaders in an applet is to make 
signed jar files ?
How can I test them ?

I'm expecting your help.
Thanks in advanced !!

Dani
