Best communication method between Applet and server

Posted by Bob Zee on May 09, 2001 at 5:17 PM

Hi,

I am developing a SWING applet, and I need to send/recieve information from a database...and possibly do some other server processing as well.

What is the recommended communication method...HTTP using servlets on the server??..

RMI to Java classes on the server??

if I do not need to do any server processing can I just do direct JDBC from the applet to the database?

Thanks in advance..

BZ
