This is totally helpfull, tho I have one more question with respect to
it.. if my servlet has specific functions in it and for different
functions of my applet I want to call those different functions in the
servlet would I be able to do that? I see where you do the
outputData.writeObject(hash) to the servlet.. would I have to do that
instead of being able to call the servlets different functions and then
i'd have to have multiple servlets each only doing one task?
