Signing An Applet!!!!! Me Need Help!!!!! Plz!

[marco]

OK OK OK OK!!!!!!
i know how to sign an applet, but its a problem with the applet i am having!!!!!!!!!!!!

first i create the class of the applet (italics is cmd commands)

javac MyApplet.java
(you can also open your .java applet with the javac.exe located in the bin directory of your JDK)

that creates the .class.. than i make that into a .jar
first i copy the entire bin directory of my JDK directory to the directory of the .java/.class i am signing

jar cvf MyApplet.jar MyApplet.class

and then i validate the jar

keytool -genkey -alias MyApplet -validity 365

and then i sign it.. to sign u do
jarsigner MyApplet.jar MyApplet

but when ever i do that, i always get a "error in method, cannot find 'main' method" type of error, and ITS NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT :mad: :mad: :mad:

if anyone has any info on what i might be doing wrong or what that ANNOYING error is please tell me.. my friend tried it and sais it works for him, so idk it might be my computer

I am running a Windows XP home eddition on a Dell Inspion 9400 notebook
(i know it might be the dell, dells are POS:mad: )

Don't you think this is strange? :) I don't recommend this. Try signing without moving whole JDK! Instead add bin directory of your JDK to PATH environment variable.

kk now this is messed as it can get..

i signed the applet.. its signed.. when i made the html file it asks to i wanna trust the signature so ITS SIGNED

now.. the thing is, the I/O wont work.. my java.io.FileNotFoundExceptions says on it "File not found" (and then i made it so my program stops at that point).. anyway i put in the entire pathname to it (going right from C:\ instead of the native folder it is in) AND IT STILL DOESNT WORK so now i am stressed out

does anyone know why it wont work on the html doc? the extention is correct coz when i compiled it on my IDE it works and reads the file, but the html doc it doesnt!! PLEASE HELP
