Java Applet works in IE but not Netscape 7.x....
Someone from the Java programming forum suggested that I post this here. **** I hate being a newbie... :)
I have a digitally signed applet that needs to brigde the cross domain communications issues inherint with the Java Security "Sandbox".
The applet works as expected in I.E. 6.x but when attempting to load in Netscape, I get an error consistant with what I would expect if the applet was NOT signed.
Here is the error:
Error: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission machine.name.com resolve)
Here is the html code I am using to embed the applet:
<applet
code="wrapper.class"
archive="wrapper.jar"
name=wrapper
width=0
height=0>
</applet>
When I access the page, it gives me the alert box that you would expect to see when accessing a signed applet (in both browsers) but it just doesnt work in Netscape.
Any tips/tricks?
Thanks,
Chris Meyer

The object tag is for IE, if Netscape, it uses the Applet tag. I work on IE6 and N7.0. I use signed applets, must work.
Hope to be helpfull, make me know if not
