Signing Applets..Policy File

Hi All,

I have developed a Applet to read from local hard disk file. I have signed it. Regarding policy file i hv sm confusion.wihtout policy file also it is working. Isn't must to use policy files. If it is must how and where i will install it on other remote machines.

Reg Certificates, whether we hv to manually give a link in our html. or anyother way is there to let IE automatically pop up that "Plugin Window" asking abt certficate(Grant,deny..\)

Lemme me know the details..

If an applet is [url http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/qow/archive/167/index.jsp]properly signed[/url], it should automatically popup a window asking the user to grant the requested privilege -- there is no need to use a policy file. If you chose to use a policy file, you do not need to sign the applet. It's one or the other!

;o)
