Subject: file io with applets
I've been using Java for the past couple months in a graduate
independent study. I was very surprised to find that you couldn't read
a data file off the server. The surprise is that you can read image
files, but why not a data file? Anyways, my suggestion is that a
mechanism should be implemented where it is possible for applets to read
a data file from the server.
I'm using Netscape, BTW.
