Applets allow you to connect only to the server on which they live themselves. That is, if the Applet's source URL is on machine aaa.bbb.com, the datbase to which you connect must also be on aaa.bbb.com Appletviewer is more lenient about this, to allow you to test things from your own machine etc. Solutions: Run Postgres on the same machine as the applet. or Write a server which does the connection on behalf of your applet and returns it the results, and run it on the applet's machine.

Although I haven't tried it, the plug-gw module from fwtk (a free proxy
based firewall toolkit) should do this ok (I don't think it handles OOB
packets, but the current JDBC drivers don't use that option [yet] ).
PS: I don't have the url for this handy, but if anyone needs it, I'll post
it from work tomorrow.

Ah, it's just hit me. Can you supply me the following:
Version of netscape:
Version of postgresql:
Version of JDK:

It is not only required that the web server and the JDBC source will be the same machine - Java has to *know* it, so it's impossible to use "my.machine.com" in one, and "localhost" in the other. It is also impossible to use a local site "file://....", and "localhost" - it's not the same thing. So what are the URLs you are using? Herouth -- Herouth Maoz, Internet developer.

Tell me something like this: The URL of the HTML file is: http://my.domain.com/..... And the URL of the JDBC connection in the Java source is: jdbc:postgresql://my.domain.com/mydatabase/...

The way the jdbc URL is written, it assumes it is running on the localhost. As soon as Netscape sees that it's not the same exact domain (it can't know that localhost is the same as my.domain.com), it refuses to cooperate. So change the URL like I showed you: jdbc:postgresql://my.domain.com/mydb In addition, make sure the url of the web page is indeed http: and not file:. Herouth -- Herouth Maoz, Internet developer.

Ah, 3.02 is definitely out (it's a 1.0.2 JVM).
As for 4.05, I think that some parts of awt are still not implemented, but
it should understand jdbc.
I've got to upgrade my netscape, so I'll see if jdbc does work ok with it.
