Can't speak to the thinlets question.

As for JDBC, try this:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jdbc/index.html

Also, since you're trying to access JDBC via an applet keep in mind that 
applets by default have significant security restrictions on network 
connectivity:  an applet can only open a socket back to the machine that 
served it up.

If you want the applet to connect to an Oracle DB, then either: 1) the applet 
needs to be server up by a web server running on the same host as Oracle, or 
2) you'll have to sign the applet and have Java prompt the user to allow the 
applet to access another host.
