Wow, so now, to run applets that need to access to the file system, you have to buy a certificate, sign your applet, make the user accept to run applets on you website, make him accept your certificate, and make him change a security setting to UNSAFE mode in Safari!
Who is the f$&@#ng manager at Apple who decided that? Then, why supporting applets in Safari? Frankly, Apple should simply refuse them, at least, the message would be clear
Still can't believe it... :-(
