NetBeans created a sample HTML and JNLP files to demonstrate launching my app.
I maintain an Apache based web sever. If I put all the files on my server in a single directory it all works great. Specifically, if I click the JavaScript "Launch" button, then I get asked to start the JNLP file in webstart.
