I have an applet that generates HTML text that it then wants the
browser to display.

It seems the only way to direct the browser to display HTML is via
an URL:  getAppletContext().showDocument(URL).

I can write my HTML into a local file and construct an URL to that
file, however, Netscape 2.0 apparently won't let me create/write a 
local file (appletviewer does).

Is there a way I can direct the browser to display HTML text by giving it,
e.g., an InputStream rather than an URL?

Alternately, is there a way I can get Netscape to let me write a local 
temporary file?
