Solving Common Problems Using Other Swing Features

Problem: My applet isn't finding its icons in its JAR file.

• Some versions of Applet Viewer and Java Plug-in can't load icons (or other data files) from JAR files. A workaround is to keep copies of the image files on the server file system, exactly where the files would be if the JAR file were absent. Unfortunately, this workaround doesn't seem to work when the applet is delivered across a firewall. See Specifying the Image Source for more details.

If you don't find your problem in this section, consult Solving Common Component Problems.
