I'm not sure how it was assumed that the jar could be left out. It's even used
in the demo [1]... ;-)

I guess not that way, but you probably can reimplement code so that the error
pop-up is displayed differently. Note that the error pop-up is used for
displaying... Errors! :-) So you probably don't want (in most cases, that is)
simply discard them. You (and/or your users) will want to be informed so the
erroneous content can be fixed.


Note that I'm having extreme difficulty in trying to imagine a bug from this
report. I'm much more inclined to marking it "invalid", but I'm marking it as
"need info" so that more information is added which can then turn this into a
bug report [2]. Please update with more info or close the issue accordingly!
:-)


Finally, the most updated sources [3] contains a fix which solved a security
problem which forced applets to be signed. In the mean time, my current guess
goes to security policy issues, not related to Batik...
