Mark,
>Let me know if you need >more details. Thank you sooo much! Yes, this is EXACTLY what I need! The error I have is pertaining to... java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.util.PropertyPermission jaxp.debug read) ...and I imagine it is possible (if only 'unofficially') to modify the source to avoid this. Could you elaborate on how you 'always set it to false without checking'? Thanks again, Richard. P.S. Casey: I am using JRE 1.3.1_02 Mark Childerson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mark@childer cc: soft.com> Subject: Re: SOAP in Applets: the JAXP problem :P 30/01/2002 10:23 Please respond to soap-user We got it to work in applets with the Java plugin. I recall that the only policy issue was in the code where it read a system property to control whether a debug flag was set to true or false. We just set it always to false without checking, and the problem went away. Let me know if you need more details. Mark.
