In the invocation of the appletviewer a path specification for the HTML file is
expanded at the beginning by the current directory. See eaxample.
This leads to errors, when the applet viewer is not invoked from the partition,
in which the desired HTML file resides. Please do not expand the provideed path
and use standards (like ./ or ../ )

Error message generated under WIN2000 (probably the same in other WIN32
environments !)
