how to attach files to applet?

Hi,

I created a java applet and it's using icons .PNG inside my java directory. I know applet can't access clients' files but my applet must load the icon pictures. So, I am having problem because my applet won't load in a webbrowser. Is there a way to "embed" my icons into my applet?

You could either keep the image files in the same web directory as the applet and access them through URL objects, or bundle them with the class files in a jar file and access them using getResourceAsStream.
