ramesh,

we use SoapRMI (now called XSOAP) and its successor XSUL in many applets through java plugin (xsul has subset of APIs packed as small JAR file with web services "client" functionality only specifically to support this). it works.

other option would be to use web start: the only factor yo need to consider is what is acceptable size of JAR file(s) to pull into user browser. in case of XSUL it is 100K for client (xsul_client-1.1.16-rc2.jar) and arond 120K for xpp3/xb1 (xpp3-1.1.3.4.M.jar) which is lightweight Java DOM-like API.

we do not have reources to support XSUL users but you can pull source code from our CVS repository and play with samples:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous_at_cvs.extreme.indiana.edu:/l/extreme/cvspub login
CVS password: cvsanon

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous_at_cvs.extreme.indiana.edu:/l/extreme/cvspub co xsul/java

or view it online:

HTH,

alek
