Bridge between PHP site and Java applet

Question

I want to know if it's possible to have an applet communicate with a PHP site and retrieve some information. If so, what approaches can be used?

Answer 1

Your applet could do some URLConnections or HTTPConnections and get the raw text returned by the PHP url.

String myUrl = " http://mysite.com/service.php?param1=yay ";

Then use the example How do you Programmatically Download a Webpage in Java to get the text.

Answer 2

Read the PHP page in JAVA Applet, and use JSON/XML format to send data from PHP to Java applet. JSON or XML would make it easier for you to handle the data.

Answer 3

即使您打算使用HTTP发送和接收数据，也无法确保它，因为用户始终可以访问它。
