Take a look at the URLClassLoader. That should do what you want.Hope that helps

That would assume that I have some code locally to do the URLClassLoader stuff. What if I have ALL the code in the online jar file?BR,/M

The easiest way would be to download the online jar and then use it...

Sounds like you want Webstart.
