Re: javascript reading files through java

its not really an applet, just java objects floating around in javascript, 
all run-time complilations. i've done this before with actual applets (in 
regauds to a java post a few months back). i've seen some of netscape's 
security settings being changed from javascript, but am not familiar with 
its layout or options at all. i suppose i can live with only reading local 
files, but writing to files (even offline) is proving to be a real pain. 
some checkwrite exception now, and again, i've done it exactlly the same 
with applets. guess i'll keep playing with it, thanx for the info. -
