Hi

I am trying to write a image processing applet which takes in a user defined file from his harddisk, does some processing on it and later writes it back onto his harddisk. However, due to the security restrictions of applets which I have read so much about, this seems like an impossible task. I've visited the Java Trail at Sun's website and it says there should be a workaround for applets restrictions. Does anyone have any idea how I should proceed or work around this problem?.. I'm under a tight deadline and will appreciate any form of help. +)
