signed applet gives AccessControlException: access denied, when calling from javascript

Question

I have an easy self-signed an applet (done with keytool and the jarsigner):

public class NetAppletLauncher extends JApplet {

    private static final long s         


        

Answer 1

I agree : it is prohibited to manipulate a signed applet from javascript, and the workaround is to rewrite the applet tag in javascript in the page document.

I found this source with a bit of theory proving we are right http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/applet/security.html#jsNote
