When I simply provide the data WITHOUT a JAR file, simply placed in the same directory, it works beautifully, so I don't think it's a directory issue. It only likes to bork when I package the information in a JAR archive. The rest of the applet loads just fine.
I'm wide open to ideas, and as always: thanks in advance. You Java folks rock. [smile]
EDIT: Oh, darn. Pretend those warped HTML codes GD.NET converted are really forward slashes.[java] The dreaded JARs! (Resource loading question)

Me again. [smile]
I have an applet that needs to load a variety of images from a JAR archive. Unfortunately, these puppies are refusing to be accessed. Here's what I've tried already in an attempt to load the images:
Hi!
You're saying your images are within a jar file? If so, is it the same jar archive that contains the code that tries to load them, or is it a different jar file?
Take a look at this thread:

Let us know whether this solves your problem or not. Remember that when you are trying to load things *from* a jar, the "current directory" is the classpath, and not necessarily the current directory (the directory where the jar you call things from is located).

You may wish to try using a path with a leading "/" on it. Remember that JAR filenames are probably case sensitive.
I've looked at some of my code (which is J2ME Midlet not an Applet), and that's what I'm doing. From memory, I think that if you omit the leading "/", it probably doesn't work.
What exception are you getting?

@Addictman: That did the trick. Thanks a lot for the linkage. [smile]
@Mark: It wasn't the leading forward slash, but your help is still appreciated. (and your rating is alread maxed, so 'thanks' will have to suffice, hehe)
