Netscape lets you connect to the host were your applet is lodaded from only. To me it
looks, as
this is what you are doing. Only as the applet is on the local host you don't load it
via network
(www server) but directly from the disk. So Netscape calls your applet host
'local-classpath-classes'. That is different from 'localhost'. Try loading your applet
via a
server on your local host.
Hope that helps
