So you need to set up an alternate website, with your Applets on it.
You then need to server some webpages with <APPLET tags that refer to 
your Applets.  It sounds like you want to ignore the original website
entirely? no?  Perhaps your applets could set some GET requests to the
orginal website if they wanted information from it.  See
