Hi,

We are developing a large web-based Environmental Information and =
Assessment System by using Java technique, e.g. Java applets, servlets, =
JDBC, etc. However, some institutions in our university refuse to let =
any applets in by security reasons. Is applet harmful to client's =
system? How can we convince them that Java applet is ok to their system? =
Regarding web-based applications should we use cgi, Java or HTML? which =
one has bright future?

I will be very thankful if someone can help me on the issue.

Sincerely yours

Qinghong Liu
