Hi This is all that I know and in fact I never used applets. So if there is someone qualified to explain this better...
All I can say is this is related to java architecture. In fact this is the way it should happen. An appled is runned in a sandbox. That means that you are not allowed to do certain things like: accessing the local disk, use internet connections (except to the server where the applet was downloaded from), access informations from local machine... and so on. If you HAVE TO create an Applet, you could download the Java Plugin that allow the applet to run with the jre installed from java (and not default java machine from the browser) and provide some security mechanisms that allows trusted applets to access several services (like allow it to open an internet connection, or access the local information and so on). there is another posibility... to sign your jar (or cab if for windows)... but never understood how. :o((( Hope it (somehow) helps dovle > Hello, I am new to Java web services; all of my experience is with > Microsoft's SOAP toolkit. > > Is it possible to access a web service from an applet?
