First of all the Query Tool is a DEMO. It is not meant to be something you
deploy on any web site apart from perhaps the HSQLDB site. If the demo were
made to work with the web server, it wouldn't work without the web server
running and would be of little demonstrative use. The demo is not meant to
demonstrate the file serving capabilities of any web server. It is there to
show the database works as wrapped in an applet. Anyone deploying the
database as an applet on a web server should obviously know how to deploy an
applet in general and write the Applet tag accordingly.
