Hi,
thank you for your email - I am sorry for not replying any sooner, but
the upcoming exam for CS 1 (tomorrow morning...) is leaving me little
time to breathe, let alone do anything else.

Thank you; a good idea!

Is there a web site where it is running like this? Or could you please
email me one of the generated JNLP file? (It does not matter much if
the site is not actually accessible) That will make debugging easier,
since I do not want to "update" my web server to something that may
not work :-)
One guess might be that the file to be served cannot be accessed by
guests (i. e., if you are not logged in). That might be a good reason
for it to fail...
Best regards,
Guido
