files in the same directory as your HTML file and set file permission correctly

All news information are stored in a file called
"conf.dat", this file format is pretty much like HTML format,
you can use any text editor tool to generate this file, in order
to let applet parse it properly, this file must comply with some guidelines.
Each news entry is defined by tags values and must be in the same line,
namely, do not punch ENTER key in middle of news entry, any blank lines
and lines starting with "<!" are skipped. Take a look at following sample
"conf.dat" file. |

link. There is at least one space between each part and news entry must
be in the same line, URL link can be either relative to current codebase
or absolute>
