Hi,

does somebody have an idea what the exception:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: IllegalName: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
at java.lang.ClassLoader.preDefineClass(Unknown Source)

at Graph.init(Graph.java:465)
at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(Unknown Source)

mean?

The weird thing is, i have two pages on the first one i get this
exception
and on the other one, the applet work.

Check it out
not working -> http://www.stephan-zehrer.de/LiveGraph
working -> http://www.stephan-zehrer.de/html/graph/

They both uses the same jar file.

What's wrong?

thx

Steve

LOL!

..Sorry. It is just that I have never seen 'validate your HTML'
expressed so eloquently or forcefully.

<http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.stephan-zehrer.de%2FLiveGraph>

Note that if you wish to use the <applet> element and
keep that validator happy, you need to declare your HTML
as version either '3.2' or '4.01 Transitional'.

This one is actually far worse..
<http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.stephan-zehrer.de%2Fhtml%2Fgraph%2F>

In fact, by the looks of the output, I would guess *it*
is the one throwing that error, but before I even bother
to check either, fix the HTML.

> What's wrong?

Making up HTML as you go along, mainly.
