    - This installation pack contains all source and resource files mentioned in the book.

    - Files are grouped by chapter.

    - To try out the JNLP-related examples without compiling them follow the instructions below:

         1. copy the content of the directory "/webserver doc root" into your web server document root
         2. use the file "/webserver doc root/b2/jnlp index.html" to invoke JNLP files.

    - To try the other examples follow the instructions in each chapter and in the book.

    - Read the introduction section (page 2) in the book for the required software in order to run these examples.




                       Web Server File Installation Notes
                       ----------------------------------


    - The final structure of the deployed files on your web server will look like this:


      <Web Server Document Root>
              |
              |
              +----  b2
                     |
                     +---------c7
                     |
                     +---------c8
                     |
                     +---------c9
                     |
                     +---------c10
                     |
                     +---------c11
                     |
                     +---------c13
                     |
                     +---------ad
                     |
                     |
                    jnlp index.html



    - The directory b2 as set above is provided in the directory "/webserver" ready to be copied into your web server document root.
      It contains copies of the related file into each chapter's "deployed" directory.

    - The file "jnlp index.html" located in "/webserver doc root/b2" can be used to launch most of the JNLP examples in the book.
      Such a file must be located in the directory: <Web "Server Document Root>/b2"

    - In every directory rooted in b2 there will be all the needed files (jnlp, html, etc.).




                                    Other Notes
                                    -----------


    - Keystore files and related signing batch files are not provided. 
      After compilation and JAR packaging you have to sign yourself JAR files, as described in the book.

    - Files are grouped by chapter. They can be installed and tested separately.
