I created a patch to get past the NPE exception, basically set a default
width and height of 1 if none is present in the tag.  I wasn't able to
confirm that this applet works since it requires LiveConnect, but I get
past the original exception

Bug description:
Binary package hint: icedtea-java7-plugin

I am trying to access an applet from http://www.jigzone.com. The applet fails to load with error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
	at sun.applet.PluginMain.start(PluginMain.java:211)
	at sun.applet.PluginMain.main(PluginMain.java:73)


I am running Hardy Alpha 6 (firefox3, icedtea-java7). The applet works just fine on my Gutsy box (firefox2, sun6).

I have attached the complete console output
