I guess I could use a little more detail here since I really am not
familiar with applet development or programming. Do you have a good
pointer to a decent resource on the subject, say for setting this up
with apache?

My client that I'm going to be working on is totally separate from the
server. Hopefully, I'm going to be doing development locally, and
then, when done, uploading the code changes to the server. If there is
a simple applet directive that I could put in a test page that could
take the code from localhost and run it against data that is hosted on
the server, then that is exactly what I need.
