Can't create a Robot within an Applet

[Thirg]

Hi,

I am having problems creating a robot within an applet, is this possible?

[size=8pt]        try
        {
            Robot m_robot = new Robot();
        }       
        catch( Exception e )
        {
            System.err.printf( "Cant create a Robot for mouselook!\n" );
        }  [/size]

This works fine running through netbeans using a MainFrame, but creating the Robot running as an applet.

I have tried to call:
[size=8pt]          AWTPermission robot_permission = new AWTPermission( "createRobot" );[/size]

...but this doesn't seem to work either.

Any suggestions, advice or ideas?

Thanks,

Thirg...

I don't think its possible without signing your applet. The sandbox in the browser stops you.
