I am designing a web based form that allows the user to enter a bunch of
text fields and write it to a plain text file. I have built most of the
java code but am having difficulties because of the security restrictions in
place for applets. The form will not write to the file. Is there some way
that I can either bypass this restriction or approach it differently. I have
been looking at signature files and certificates but I am not sure if
Netscape and IE support it. If you could send me a reply I would be
thankful.
Thank you,
Aaron DeLeskie.
