I was having an issue with an embedded applet I've been working on for a while now. The applet's jar is signed and all-permissions are granted, and it runs perfectly fine in the applet viewer. When loaded in the browser there is only a blank box with an error logo where my applet should be. When clicked it returns "java.lang.invocationtargetexception". I am using a basic HTML format to embed the applet. Here is the HTML Code I am using to display it:
<html>
<body background="BG.png">
<a href="index.html">Back to the index</a>
<center><h1>Web Forum</h1></center>
<center><table border = "0">
<tr>
<td><center><h3>Forums</h3></center></td>
<td width = 25></td>
<td width = 225><center><h3>Chatbox</h3></center></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><center><applet
code=Topics.class
archive=Topics.jar
width=750
height=1000 ><PARAM name="permissions" value="sandbox"></PARAM>
</applet></center></td>
<td width = 25></td>
<td width = 225 bgcolor = #00FF00><center><h3>Coming Soon</h3></center></td>
</tr>
</table></center>
</Body>
</Html>
And here is the Java console dump thread list:

Done.
Here is the signed jar's manifest:
Manifest-Version: 1.0

I see no reason the error would be resulting form my code itself, but here it is just incase:
