I am the editor of the page at sourcecodecorner.com. I don't quite understand what you have written, though reading between the lines, it is for the Java applet to work.
If you can re-iterate this thread, with the changes neccesary to make everything work in a fairly simple manner (that the readers can understand), then I will only be too happy. Best regards.
