Subject: Bug Report on Signed Applet Example URL

Dear Sir,

Location
--------
After visiting your Signed Applet Example URL
(http://java.sun.com/security/signExample/index.html)
I find it very helpful. However, there is a small bug
in the testing example, that is
(http://java.sun.com/security/signExample/signedWriteFile.html)

Description
-----------
After I installed the certicate of Duke, I still cannot run
appletviewer http://java.sun.com/security/signExample/signedWriteFile.html
However, I can run appletviewer signWriteFile.html
if all file is downloaded from your ftp site mentioned in your url

Possible reason
---------------
I find the signWriteFile.jar in the above url is different from
the one I get in your ftp site.
ie the following files are different:
a) http://java.sun.com/security/signExample/signWriteFile.jar
b) ftp://ftp.javasoft.com/docs/security/signExample/signWriteFile.java

Where b) can work properly, but a) cannot!

Thank your for attention and maintaining this great http site!

Yours faithfully,
Ronald Chan
