Nope. There isn't an easier way. It is pretty silly that you can't go
through the ambient browser, especially since the browser might do things
like socket layer encryption, something you probably don't want to
reinvent.
But now you need to chat to port 80 (or whatever) and send it the POST
information.

Subject: http-server connection
I am trying to get an applet to connect to a server and run a cgi
program there.
It seems the easiest way to do this would be to simply mimic the stream
sent by a standard browser to the server. Just connect to port 80 and
send the line of syntax the server is expecting from a browser.
I guess what Im asking is - would there be an easier way? And, if not,
where to find the syntax of this stream?
Any help would be great!
Regards,
Dave Bliss
