Subject: How applets read local files
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have written an applet to demonstrate my research work. This applet
reads a binary data file
in my local host. (actually the same deirectory as the applet itself). I
used appletviewer to test it
and everything went fine. However, when I embedded it to my homepage, it
did not work because
checkread is not passed. I have set all the permission to the data file.
How is this problem ?
Can applet open local files ?
Any help will be highly appreciated !
Yours,
Xuguang Yang
