[Gridsphere-users] Re: GridSphere and applet

[Mona Wong]

Hi Igor:

	We punted on using the applet in our GS portal because there is a  
bigger problem for us than applet to portal communication...if the  
user navigates to another portlet and then returns to the applet  
portlet, the applet is restarted/reinitialized!  This will not work  
for our needs.  Consider that before you move forward with the applet.

	If you wish to continue the applet route, I think you can pass the  
URL part to the applet as an argument.

	If you are concerned with security for your applet, be aware that  
your applet can be launched by a URL call, even outside the portal so  
you should do something to ensure that it won't startup if not  
launched from your portal with proper authentication.

	Good luck!

cheers,
Mona
