Hi,
I am trying to create a self signed certificate by using the utilities that come along with MS SDK. I am able to successfully create the test certificate and install it in the trusted root store. I created a sample HelloWorld applet. I created a CAB file with the .class file. I used the Visual studio tool to create the CAB file. Also i tried with CABARC .Then i created a HTML file that uses this CAB file. But i get a classnotfound exception when i run this page.
I tried the same steps with a JAR file and it worked fine. For siging a JAR file i used the jarsigner utility.
.. < applet code=HelloWorld width=200 height=200 > < param name="cabinets" value="readIE.cab" >
I have tried the < param name = "cabbase" .. > option too.

Should i include some code to extract the class file and place it in the jre path? I suspect it is a config issue..
Thank you.
