    Subject: Signed applet's

Hello, I just read the webpage concerning signed applet's and their use.
It seems that the clients viewing the applet must have JDK1.x to grant
permission to read or write files. Is their anyway of getting around
this? For example, Netscape has a certain downloading utility that
simply prompts the client as to whether or not to allow files to be
downloaded on the clients machine. I am trying to write an applet that
interacts with a database and allows students to download files from the
database. Any insight would be much appreciated. Please respond to
drb30@columbia.edu.
