AccessDenied with Integrated Applet

OK, applet is here:

http://myServer/myAppletts/myApplet.jar

The html file doesn't provide a codebase value for the applet and I need to edit a file here:

http://myServer/myHtmlTextFilesInUTF-8/myHtmlfile.html

// To read that file you can use the URL object:

URL u = new URL(this.getCodeBase(),"../myHtmlTextFilesInUTF-8/myHtmlfile.html"

// Open a urlconnection:

URLConnection c = u.openConnection();

InputStream in = c.getInputStream();

// read the file

ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

byte[] buf = new byte[1024];

int len;

while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {

bos.write(buf, 0, len);

}

byte[] data = bos.toByteArray();

// create a string of the file

String theHTMLFile = new String(data,"UTF-8");

Remember: applets cannot access the local filesystem nor can they connect with any

other server than the one thy came from. To save the file you can use URL and

URLConnection to POST the data to a servlet and let the servlet write it to disc.

Assuming you have only text to send with the applet in a way that a html form would send textarea

<form method="post" enctype="application/x-form-urlencoded">

<textarea id="contentOfMyFile" name="contentOfMyFile">

This is the content of my file

</textarea>

</form>

you could check out the following site:

http://javaalmanac.com/cgi-bin/search/find.pl?words=post+url

Both URL (applet) and servlet example are there.
