No. (sorry :) The significant difference between applets and PHP to your problem, is that PHP is server side, and the applet is client side. Server side stuff has access to all things on server (giving right file permissions ofcourse). Client side stuff, like applets, only has access to stuff accessible via the web server, i.e. accessible with http://bla/bla. > Can you explain more on servlet/bla to allow access?

If the size is too much, you could use a servlet or a CGI-bin script to serve a requested data file. You might even have PHP do this, but then you need to make sure that only the data is transmitted and no HTML stuff. Probably not too difficult to set up.
