passing values from servlet to Applet

[Neeba Rebbaca]

I'm updating database from an applet application through servlet. My problem here is, again from servlet i want to pass a string to applet. How to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

Couldn't you use the servlet response for that?

I tried but getting the error, "java.io.StreamCorruptedException: invalid stream header: 31526F77"

How are you trying to read the HTTP response? Show us the code.

Issue got solved by adding this piece of code.

connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setDoInput(true);
               
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(urlServlet.openStream()));
