Hi, I still get "applet not initialized" error after I using the archive="http://localhost/PluginApplet.jar" tag in jsp:plugin. Do I have to setup classpath environment variable on my Windows system? What should I put in it?

I put the class files inside PluginApplet.jar and displayed the jar contents as the following: jar -xvf PluginApplet.jar created: META-INF/ extracted: META-INF/MANIFEST.MF extracted: DrawingPanel.class extracted: PluginApplet.class extracted: TextPanel.class extracted: WindowUtilities.class 2. I copied PluginApplet.jar into http://localhost/ and was able to access it form my IE browser. 3.
