I hava created an applet that uses JLabel and ImageIcon to place an array of
images in the middle of the applet, using the following:

productImages[1] = new ImageIcon(getImage(getDocumentBase(), "pic1.jpg"));

This works fine in the applet.

I then created a seperate class to load the applet using the "public static
void main(String args[])" method, but i could not run the main method unless
i changed the ImageIcon code to:

productImages[1] = new ImageIcon("pic1.jpg");

Again this now works fine.

My problem is that i then created an executable jar file containing the
images an class files.

When i run the jar file my applet runs ok but will not load the images
stored in the jar file. If i place the images in the same folder as the jar
file then they load ok.

How can i get to load the images that are in the jar file.

Many Thanks
