You know that you need jre >= 1.3 running the applet to use it as a jboss-client? It means that MSIE and old netscape 4.7x currently don't work as clients, but better browsers as mozilla, netscape >=7 and opera works ok. It is possible to solve this problem by tunneling through http to a servlet though (or wait until M$ is forced to include a new version of java). And it is possible with liveconnect to connect the applet to a form that transfers the information.
