Per the other message I just sent ... Yes, it would be possible to do this. But with the unsigned applet it would require a cooperating cgi/jsp on the web server. > It should be possible with a script recorder to get a list of commands, > and then send this list of command to a server producing the images. Fundamentally, I think that the work needs to be done by the applet, not on the server. But in order to 'export' the file to the client, the (unsigned) applet needs to send the file to the web server (via POST). The server simply needs to echo the results back down to the browser. > I have also seen a webservice that produces customized high quality > images from a PDB file.

An important part of this problem is understanding what data attributes need to be saved in order to save a 'view'. This is independent of the actual syntax that is used to describe the view. > PS : about server side application, I read that PHP can run Java > routine.

I think it would be best if the calculations happened within the applet on the client.
