[rachel-user] Adding URL Handler to JRE?

[Rob S. <ro...@ma...>]

I'm working on a project involving Mozilla, and attempting to load Java 
Applets from within the chrome:// protocol that Mozilla maps to a local 
folder under it's tree.. the problem is that when I load up the page 
with the applets, I see only the grey box where the applet should be, 
and the JRE console spits out:

java.net.MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: chrome

I'm not sure if Rachel itself would really be helpful in this case 
since I'm not using Java Web Start, and I'm sorry if this is off topic 
for this list but would it be possible to add a custom URL handler for 
the chrome:// protocol which simply wraps to the local browser dir? 
Does this seem at all logical or am I completely out in left field 
here?  Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.
