I have created a JavaFX test application using Netbeans IDE 7.1 Beta and build it to the dist directory. When I click on the html file it works fine. If I move the html file to an other directory and update the references to the jnlp and the jar, it fails. It still searches the jnlp file in the directory of the html file.
