Hi!
I'm using Netscape Navigator 3.4 on an IRIX 6.2 operating system and
need to read a file from my local platform. I'm loading the class-file
via the classpath and therefore don't get any security exceptions. But I
always get a FileNotFoundException. I don't no any other possibility how
to tell the applet which file it should read. Do you have any hints?
Help would be very appreciated. It doesn't work on Windows 95 either.
Greetings,
Bernd
