Error Reading from a File

Question

Right now i am coding a game and i need to read from a text file to load the map. The only problem is that i cant do this in internet exploerer because i get an error saying that access is denied. I've been researchign the problem nonstop and the only solution i have found is to sign the applet, but i dont even know how to do that. I would like to avoid having a signed applet for obvious reasons and i'm sure its possible to do it without a signed applet. My code is as follows:
          try{
               BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("Map1.txt"));
               String input, string1, string2;
               for (int x = 0; x < terrain.length; x++){
                    terrain[x].setFilled(false);
               for (int x = 0, currentArray; x < terrain.length; x++){
                    if ((input = in.readLine()) != null) {
                         StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(input);
                         currentArray = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
                         terrain[currentArray].setTerrainType(st.nextToken());
                         terrain[currentArray].setFilled(true);
                    else{
                         break;
               in.close();
               offscreenMap = createImage(size().width, size().height);
               mapGraphics = offscreenMap.getGraphics();
               mapGraphics.clearRect(0, 0, size().width, size().height);
               // everything from here down is to be painted to mapGraphics... but it doesn't get this far cuz of an error
               for (int x = 0; x < terrain.length; x++){
                    if (terrain[x].getTerrainType().equals("Grass")){
                         grass.paintIcon(this, mapGraphics, terrain[x].getX(), terrain[x].getY());
                         System.out.println("terrain(" + x + ") is Grass");
                    else if (terrain[x].getTerrainType().equals("Tree")){
                         tree.paintIcon(this, mapGraphics, terrain[x].getX(), terrain[x].getY());
                         System.out.println("terrain(" + x + ") is Tree");
                    else if (terrain[x].getTerrainType().equals("Mountain")){
                         mountain.paintIcon(this, mapGraphics, terrain[x].getX(), terrain[x].getY());
                         System.out.println("terrain(" + x + ") is Mountain");
          catch (FileNotFoundException e){
               System.out.println("Map not found");
          catch (IOException e){
               System.out.println("IOException Error!");
          }Please tell me how i could read from the same file with a BufferedReader without having to sign an applet.
Thanks for your help!!!

Answer 1

ignore that one comment about something not working, thats a thing of the past (offscreen graphics problem, fixed by moving createImage() outside of the contructor) :-D
