Hello all,

I am working on a project that displays URL images from the web in an applet.
I am using ImageIcon( URL ) to get my image from the web, but I am having
difficulty in displaying it.
My applet will display the image OK if the web browser proxy settings are
set to NONE, however if I use
my ISP's proxy the image is not displayed and I get a black screen.
---------------------------------------------------
public boolean loadMapImage( URL imageURL ) {

        Image localImage = new javax.swing.ImageIcon( imageURL ).getImage() ;

        if( localImage != null ) {
                originalImage = new BufferedImage( localImage.getWidth( null ),
localImage.getHeight( null ), BufferedImage.TYPE_3BYTE_BGR ) ;
                Graphics2D g2 = originalImage.createGraphics() ;
                g2.drawImage( localImage, 0, 0, null ) ;

                repaint() ;
                return true ;
        }

        originalImage = null ;
        return false ;
}
-----------------------------------------------------
The class with this method extends off Component.

Can anyone suggest another method of getting an image URL of the web or
spot my error.

Thanx

David
