    could somebody clarify this for me?

    applets can read from files that are stored in the same location as the applet. i have this working myself but...

    i have read that applets can also write to files once the files are on the same machine (server) as the applet.

    is this accurate? this shoudlnt involve any certs or signing of applets since the applet is only writing to its originating location, not to the clients machine.

    thnx, this is major barrier to a project i'm doin.

    If this is a major barrier, I think you have a problem with your design. A much better solution is for the applet to tell the server to write the data through a bean or IIOP or, best, through a POST.

    Have a look at http://www.wutka.com/hackingjava/ch8.htm
