question: http proxy to circumvent applet sandbox

2 New Member
I need to send an http request from an applet to a web server other than the one where the applet was loaded from. Sandbox prohibits doing this directly. The applet sandbox only allows connetion to the host it was loaded from.

So, I need to use a proxy to fool the applet sandbox. Applet is loaded from IIS which uses JRun for servlets. I gather I need to write a servlet to act as a proxy because I was told that IIS/Jrun cannot be configured to perform this type of redirect automatically. Is there a better method?

If I need a servlet is there an open source or commercial software that does this? The http response will have either one jpeg image in a regular http response, or several jpeg images (mjpeg) in multipart response. I need a proxy servlet which acts as a passthru regardles of the response type so it would not matter if we get regular or multipart response.

Thank you.

There's a website I like to visit that has an user-interactive java application. There's a "visual applet" component and "control applet" component. (No, it's not an adult or porno site.) But the application isn't always usable because one or both of the applets have "failed," and has to be reset or something like that. I don't get it. How the hell does an applet "fail"? It's a set of instructions in code, right? It doesn't...

Hi, I have a web-based application and some of the UI I want to incorporate is just too complicated for javascript. Instead of using a Java Applet, I would like to have the user download a .net assembly containing a form and run that in a browser. I'm happy for the form to run in an applet-like sandbox (cannot write to local hard disk, can only talk to the server it came from etc). What I don't want is for the user to have to install...

Hi I am looking for any articles anyone may know of on developing a finite state machine in a gui application? Basically what I have is a fairly complex gui which needs to go through several (3 - 7?) states. Complex algorithms are running as their own separate code blocks operating on class-level data structures, the completion of the processing of one set of data takes the application from one 'state' to another. Once the last operation...

I have the following question about them and need your help. 1. Can ActiveX control open a socket in client machine to connect to a third machine other than web server? 2. Can ActiveX control invoke a client side application? I remember it can before. Any restriction on it? 3. Same questions to Java Applet within Web browser. Thank you very much.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
