I have a chat program in RMI whose front end is applet. It runs fine with appletviewer. But when I open the applet in Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator it does not function correctly. Can anybody please explain me why.

I have written a chat application and am writing an Instant messenger using RMI, and through out I have realised that applets and RMI are not really easy to work with. Browsers have their own securities. The ports they listen to might always give security exceptions when using RMI. Appletviewer security is in compliance with RMI. In fact, creating policy file using the policytool is not always successful. I stick to frames and RMI now..

Hi, Only way to use RMI chat programs on Browsers like IE and Netscape is to clear the security, by editted the java.policy file with policy tool and give write permission. Arun SCJP
