The problem is that you are trying the connection code on the client pc (when the applets runs). You do not have permission to do so. What you can do is run this code at the server, and get the result to the applet somehow (bet to use http).

Sir,

as u told me run the code at server end....same solution i was thinking that i will use applet servlet communication...but sir my boss says we dnt wann to go for this complications n there should be sme solution as all web sites using applet r not using applet servlet communication......so any other way is there sir....n i think as our applet is loaded from server only so it should work......
