Hi,
I am trying to create an applet that will read the contents of a txt file on the server and display it on the browser. I have 3 questions.

1. How do I test the applet on my local machine without uploading it on the server? Can an applet read the contents of a file on my computer.....if it will allow it will that not be questioning Java's security features ? If it will not allow reading on the local machine, how do i override that?

2. Should my server be having Java Support in order to allow the applet to work?

3. Whats the permission level I should set for the text files being read by the applet on the server?

Thanks in advance.
