I want a better (more information feedback) way of
launching JWS* based apps. from web pages.

This example tests for the problems that would be
encountered if using sockets(from the JWSapp.
back to the applet) for that reporting.
<http://www.physci.org/test/kk/applet.html>

* The technique should also work for non-JWS apps.
launched from a web page, but JWS apps. have a
security sandbox - they are both a more interesting
challenge, and more relevant to my needs.

More test results would be appreciated - especially
for machines with a firewall (I tried to enable the
Firewall on my box - and got a Win. message
saying 'no can do' - I'll try again later..)

The sort of detail I'd like, is expressed in the results table
<http://www.physci.org/test/kk/applet.html#result>

All results/comments welcome.


* ..and yes, I feel entirely justified in
reposting the original message completely
untrimmed. I have waited around 2 weeks to
get any replies, and the original may have
dropped off some people's news clients.

I am willing to supply the code for this.
It is not secret, I just thought that being
sandboxed and based closely on Sun's KnockKnock
server/client example, it was not especially
interesting.

So how about it? Detailed, fragmentary, or
...*any* other test results would be appreciated.
