Hi

	Let me describe the scenario first. I am running a Win95 JDKbeta.
What I want to do are as follows:

	a) User starts netscape
	b) User Chooses Open-File option
	c) User selects index.html from A: drive 
           (where index.html has an applet tag)
	d) The index.html causes an applet residing in A: drive to run
	e) The applet reads from a file in A: and does some processing on it.
 	f) Finally the applet connects to another host and sends the strings
           read from the file.

Part of the scenario worked when I ran appletviewer on the index.html file.
However it fails when I use netscape as I described above. Why?

Thanks a million!

Gavin
