Andy,
A couple of things might help. In the servlet code set the content type
to "application/octet-stream" before sending the object. For example:
httpResponse.setContentType("application/octet-stream");
In the applet add the following code
InputStream in = msg.sendGetMessage(props);
/* if (in == null)
{
textAreaPanel.addText("in is null.\n");
}
if (bDebugMode) textAreaPanel.addText("sent GetMessage.\n");
con.connect(); // <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< add this
ObjectInputStream result = new ObjectInputStream(in);
Hope this helps,
Rob Griffin
