Hi, I can't talk to a method on my signed applet under NS 6.01. I need to be able to read six characters from a file on the client computer and return this as a string into a javascript on an asp page for processing. I can get it to work under IE and NS 4.xx I would appreciate being shown how to do this under Netscape 6.01 Please, if you can help, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm desperate to solve this. Mark
