A applet lives in your browser's VM, thus it does not have access to the
JNDI context like your JSP page did. The way to access from the browser
is opening up a JDBC connection to the VDB. i.e. you need to write
connection code in your applet. See this link for instructions
https://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-13887 on how to make a connection.
Also, most of the times browser's security does not allow opening
sockets, you may need to relax the security settings for the applet. You
can search the web for that, as I am not familiar with details of it.

I am not sure about your question? Are you looking for something like

http://mydomain.com

if it is it beyond scope of this email. You need domain name
registration, domain name parking, domain hosting and whole lot more
configuration before you can get there. If you already have all those
then you have a static IP that points to the mydomain.com, use that IP
and start the jboss with "-b <your-ip>" option. Then you get what you
are looking for.
