Applets allow you to connect only to the server on which they live
themselves. That is, if  the Applet's source URL is on machine aaa.bbb.com,
the datbase to which you connect must also be on aaa.bbb.com

Appletviewer is more lenient about this, to allow you to test things from
your own machine etc.

Solutions:

Run Postgres on the same machine as the applet.

or

Write a server which does the connection on behalf of your applet and
returns it the results, and run it on the applet's machine.
