Nothing  special ... I think.  they should work the same.

 Are you sure the applet uses POST method to call the servlet?
just try first to call doPost() within servlet's doGet():

public ... doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
 throws ...
{
  doPost(req,res);
}
See if debugger raises the breakpoint.

-----------------------------
Are you using in your applet:

myConnection = new HttpURLConnection(java.net.URL);
myConnection.setRequestMethod("POST");

instead of direct java.net.URL.openConnection() calls, wich return
a 'simpler' java.net.URLConnection instance?
