All articles I read about this subject supposed that the applets share the same codebase and are unarchived . My question is if is possible to intercommunicate two applets when they are localized in different jar/zip/cab archives , in the same folder ? I couldn't succeed with it and I'd realy like to know if I have any chance to do it.
Thanks,
Alex

easiest probably solution is to do it though the servlet where they can connect to it and exchange information.

Thanks. I think to use this solution as a last way to do it because of the delay implied. Another solution is probably to use some JavaScript mechanism to exchange information between applets and the html page, but I'm not specialist in this. Other suggestions ?

In the meantime I studied some JavaScript and I found a way to do it using this mechanism, at least theoreticaly. I would prefer another way of doing this I there is any.
CAB file is an archive format created(!) by Microsoft.
