Mutiple jar files not cached with cache_archive parameter

When mutiple jar files are specified in the cache_archive parameter for the applet and the class files are in the speciifed jar files in the cache_archive parameter. The jar files which applet needs to run are not cached in the Java Plug-in cache.

The requested jar files are cached if the applet parameter is archive .

Platform tested : Windows 2000
Browser : IE5.5
Steps to reproduce :

1. Install Java Plug-in Merlin build 77.

2. Enable jar caching from the Java Plug-in control panel.

3. Load the applet in a browser.

(This a applet runs with the resources distributed in 2 jar files firstjar.jar and secondjar.jar specified in the cache_archive paramater)

4. Invoke Java Plug-in cache viewer from the Java Plug-in Control Panel.

5. only firstjar.jar is cached , the other jar file (secondjar.jar ) which is also used to run the applet is not cached.

If only archive parameter is used in the html with the multiple jar files (firstjar.jar and secondjar.jar ) these 2 jars are cached which is the expected behaviour also for the cache_archive parameter.For reference here is the test case with archive parameter only.
