Hello! I'm not sure this is the right forum, but I'm sure you'll let me know if it's not. :) I noticed that Java applets running under Netscape on FreeBSD seem to have some problems. They can't connect sockets back to their host server. I can live without blind socket connectivity, but even HTTP resources don't seem to download. For example, I can't get my applet to display a simple image! I must be doing something wrong. Is there some little HTML bit or something I need to include to get a simple image to download to an applet running under FreeBSD Netscape? My applet works under IE and NS under Windoze, and I'm a fairly senior Java developer so I don't *think* it's my code. Here's a reduced version of code which demonstrates the problem. public class Research extends Applet { static Image blankButton; public void init() { blankButton = getImage( getCodeBase(), "images/blankbutton.gif" ); } public void paint( Graphics g ) { g.drawImage( blankButton, 0, 0, this ); // Null pointer exception is thrown here } Here's the HTML: <!DOCTYPE HTML><HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY> <APPLET CODE="Research.class" WIDTH=600 HEIGHT=500></APPLET> </BODY></HTML> Thanks in advance, Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
