Weird problem with images on JApplet

Hi

I was using jdk 1.5 and the images (JPG and GIF) were displayed perfectly in ImageIcons, I uploaded the web page and it worked very well.

that was until 4 or 5 days when I visited the web site and the miniapplication was not able to load I look in the java console and thereafter I noticed the images didin't load, then I checked the sun website and they used another method different from getImage(getDocumentBase(),"something.jpg").

it goes like this:

String path = "something.jpg";

int MAX_IMAGE_SIZE =45653;

//Change this to the size of

//your biggest image, in bytes.

int count = 0;

BufferedInputStream imgStream = new BufferedInputStream( this.getClass().getResourceAsStream(path));

if (imgStream != null)

{

byte buf[] = new byte[MAX_IMAGE_SIZE];

try

{

count = imgStream.read(buf);

imgStream.close();

}

catch (java.io.IOException ioe)

{

System.err.println("Couldn't read stream from file: " + path);

return null;

}

catch(Exception e)

{

e.printStackTrace();

}

if (count <= 0)

{

System.err.println("Empty file: " + path);

return null;

}

return new ImageIcon(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(buf));

//return new ImageIcon(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(path));

}

else

{

System.err.println("Couldn't find file: " + path);

return null;

}

I wrote and recompiled the JApplet and it worked OK, then I upload it to the website and opened it from there and... EXCEPTION!

sun.awt.image.ImageFormatException: JPEG datastream contains no image

at sun.awt.image.JPEGImageDecoder.readImage(Native Method)

at sun.awt.image.JPEGImageDecoder.produceImage(Unknown Source)

at sun.awt.image.InputStreamImageSource.doFetch(Unknown Source)

at sun.awt.image.ImageFetcher.fetchloop(Unknown Source)

at sun.awt.image.ImageFetcher.run(Unknown Source)

I updated the jdk and I repeated the process but is still the same.

SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE!
