Hi Dennis,
I may be completly wrong because I am just starting with JSP, but here is
what I think (and I think this is in phase with what Mukhar is trying to
explain):
Your applet is trying to access a session object.
As far as I know, the applet is on the client browser.
The session object in on the server.
So your applet (on the client) is trying to access the session object (on
the server).
I don't think this should be done the way you are doing it.... But I may be
wrong!!!!
Why I think this is working (in your case) with IE and not with Netscape:
I assume that you are running everything (client and server) on the same
computer (if that's incorrect, then I am completly wrong and you can press
the delete button noW! ;-) ).
IE is using the same VM than your jsp container, so it can access the same
objects. That way you can use the "request.getSession" call.
Netscape uses its own VM. As there is no real communication with the VM used
by the JSP container, it can not access the session object. So you get null.
As Mukhar said (I think it's him! ;-) ), you should check how your applet
should communicate with a servlet to achieve what you are trying to do.
Again, I may be completly wrong as I am new to JSP and there might things
that I am missing.....
At least, I hope This will Help!
Have a good day,
Loic.
