Hello!
The attached patch makes Javanoid
http://webhome.infonie.fr/rfaitout/index.htm
work again (now with sound!)
The Kaffe's appletviewer will now try to set codebase to the current
directory with "file:" prepended. This is how JDK does it.
I personally don't like this code very much, since it will most likely
work incorrectly on "other OS'es". Feel free to write it better. It is
perhaps java.net.URL which should be improved.
Nevertheless it is IMHO better to set the codebase to a value which
is correct in most cases than leave it to be "" if not specified in the
html-file.
