Hard to give details, but I'll try. The applet is packaged with iText and several other jar files included in a single jar file. That removes any problems I have with CLASSPATHS, I think. It alos makes a more reliable download (The 'applet' is over 2MB, don't ask why, I just write what the spec tells me to write :).
It works when served from a static site, but when served through our dynamical server (AOLServer) it breaks. I have been unable to detact any difference between the jar that comes out of the AOLServer and a jar that works as expected. And as I said going back to 0.92 works completely, which totally mystifies me. If you can give some places to look I will be glad to help trouble shoot this, but I am not certain where even to try to track this down as it apparently is strangely platform dependent.

I don't know why it doesn't work. Can you give some more details on your configuration, architecture, etc?
