I think this bug can be closed. The icedtea6-plugin ( 6b12~pre1-0ubuntu5
) seems to address the NullPointerException issue.  The site still
doesn't work, but the problem now seems to be with LiveConnect, see
attached log.  I believe this is related to Bug # 207064
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icedtea-
gcjwebplugin/+bug/207064, although the comments there imply LiveConnect
was implemented in the latest plugin.

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
