Hi, my question "directory problem in servlet to call applet" has been solve with help from Gurumoorthy ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]). The solution is summaried as follows I use jswdk1.0 in local computer to develop servlet-applet programming, following HTML tag (for simplicity, no-converted) is sent by servlet <APPLET CODE = JSwingTable.class WIDTH = 500 HEIGHT = 500 ALIGN = center> </APPLET> and JSwingTable.class is put in the same directory as the servlet, saying .\jswdk-1.0\webpages\web-inf\servlets\. But when I use IE5.0 to start servlet, the Java console shows load: class JSwingTable not found. java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://localhost:8080/servlet/JSwingTable.class at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source) The http://localhost:8080/servlet is actually .\jswdk-1.0\webpages\web-inf\servlets\. The servlet and applet JSwingTable.class are at the same directory. Because I could not solve this problem, I sent a question to the list. I got a solution from Gurumoorthy. Using following method, the problem is solve. 1) use request.getRealPath("/") to get the root directory to put the applet 2) put java class there and use <applet codebase="/" code ="JSwingTable.class"></applet> Thanks again!
