Hi Sven,
What you described can be done even with plain HTML (anchors with
TARGET=.... arguments);
Applets add processing/download time/memory needed to loaded pages.
Try to make both the loaded pages (generated by servlet) and applet's
classes to look as if they-re coming from the same server:port..
regarding your question on:
> Why? Is this a bug or is it a security-related feature?
One of Murphy's laws states it is both ;-)
