Sorry, the communication I described is between Applets at potentially
distant locations on the same page. There are other techniques for
Applet communication on different pages. See
http://mindprod.com/jgloss/persistence.html

If the Applets are running in different machines, they will have to
set up sockets or send datagrams to each other, or communicate via a
server. For direct Applet to Applet communication you will need to
sign the Applets.

There are many possibilities for communication:
