Java Applet to PHP Communication

Hello, I need to be able to communicate from a Java Applet to a PHP program on the server to enable "Live Connect" for data. This is what I intend to do: In my web application, a Java Script program will call a Java Applet which then calls the PHP program on the server. The PHP program works like a "servlet" and passes the result back to the Java applet which passes the information back to the JavaScript program. How can a Java applet work with a PHP program? Are there any special precautions / programming issues involved? Thanks in advance With Regards, Sharat ********************************************************************* Disclaimer: The information in this e-mail and any attachments is confidential / privileged.
