I have an applet which is accessed by javascript. The applet has been
granted all required permissions by the java.policy file. If the caller of
a method is from within the applet, the appropriate permissions are granted,
however if Javascript is calling the method, all bets are off and the applet
is denied permisssion. Even for the simple requests such as:

System.getProperty("java.home");

I am working in a dev environment currently so the applet is not currently
signed. There must be a way to run the applet locally with all permissions
from javascript without having to sign the applet.

My policy file grants java.Security.AllPermisssion() for my codebase.

This is a NS6 Issue only. Is it a bug? or am I missing something.
