how to copy file?

[Simon Xu]

hi,
I tried to use RandomAccessFile to save one file to another. It wont work. Does anything happens with Applet security?
Please post simple code if possible.
Thanx

Simon,
Yes, this does have to do with Applet security... Applets cannot read or write files on the clients machine... You can do this through Netscape capability classes ( http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/signedobj/capabilities/ ), but this will only work in Netscape browsers, and you will have to mess with signed applets and all kinds of other messy stuff...
HTH,
-Nate
