I need to send an http request from an applet to a web server other than the one where the applet was loaded from. Sandbox prohibits doing this directly. The applet sandbox only allows connetion to the host it was loaded from.
So, I need to use a proxy to fool the applet sandbox. Applet is loaded from IIS which uses JRun for servlets. I gather I need to write a servlet to act as a proxy because I was told that IIS/Jrun cannot be configured to perform this type of redirect automatically. Is there a better method?
If I need a servlet is there an open source or commercial software that does this? The http response will have either one jpeg image in a regular http response, or several jpeg images (mjpeg) in multipart response. I need a proxy servlet which acts as a passthru regardles of the response type so it would not matter if we get regular or multipart response.
Thank you.
