Getting Data from Applets

[Ira Solomon]

I've figured out how to create an applet and on the applet I have a form.
Someone types into the form.
Since an applet can't write a file, what is the best way to get the info
from the applet to someplace it can be used?
Thanks.

You could send it to the server (where the applet was loaded from) and
process it in a CGI program (such as a Java servlet). See
http://www.gamelan.com/journal/techworkshop/ for a couple of articles (last
Jan and Feb) that suggest how you might do that.
