Some reasons (and there are a lot more): - ability to keep permanent connections - ability to have a full-blown GUI with all a desktop app can have (there are lots of things you cannot model with HTML and CSS) - ability to put logic on the client (keyword "thick client") - independence of the browser (In most cases a complex, dynamic client UI can be build simpler when using an applet than by using client-side scripting langs) -mw ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
