That's funny. I made a little applet that just use and URLConnection with a
BufferedInputStream, using an HTTP url to a text file. As you said I can
read the file from the server. I pushed a bit further and tried to write
data with a BufferedOutputStream... it *seems* to work (i.e. I get no
exception error), but nothing is written on the server! I should have got an
IOException somewhere... no?
