This question regards both the java language and the security
restrictions of hotjava, so I'm writing to both lists.
I would like to have an applet that will be dependant on a text file
on a remote host. This applet should be accessable through a simple
URL, but I would like to enable it to have read/write permissions to a
text file on a remote host (the host serving the applet to the local
hotjava browser).
First of all is this possible? Secondly, the API on files is rather
hazy, how does one go about manipulating a file in java? Thirdly, is
there a better way to manage multiple instances of the same applet
that mutually effect eachother?
Any suggestions/help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
-- Mike
