I downloaded the JabberApplet today and had a few problems, greater and lesser ones, and I was hoping I could find someone willing to help this newbie.
Problem 1 (lesser): the applet class is not seen if it is JARed. I created a /jabber folder under the root of my apache web server, and put there a simple html file which, besides the usual HTML, HEAD and BODY tags had only the applt call, as reported on the jabberstudio web site, i.e.
<APPLET ARCHIVE="JabberApplet.jar" CODE="org/jabber/applet/JabberApplet.class" HEIGHT=200 WIDTH=200 VIEWASTEXT>
<param name="xmlhostname" value="/jabber.myserver.org/">
</APPLET>
So I put the JabberApplet.jar into the same folder of the html file and opened the html from a browser (that is Mozilla 1.3).
The result from the JVM was: load: class org.jabber.applet.JabberApplet not found.
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: File not found: http://mymachine/jabber/org/jabber/applet/JabberApplet.class
If I just unzip the .jar file the applet loads, bu then we fall into the 2nd problem.
Problem 2 (greater): there must be some kind of policy settings to apply, but frankly I couldn't find them anywhere. The message, once the applet has loaded, is:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission modifyThreadGroup)
at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:272)

and I can't seem to be going anywhere else.
Hope somebody can help
thanks in advance
