Basically, I think you have a misconception here somewhere.
You need the driver to be in the same codebase as the applet you are
developing, so that it can load the driver when it needs it. That would
mean the remote host when it actually works, or the local host when you are
still in development. The idea is to join the Driver's jar with the
Applet's jar.
Or you can have it locally on the CLASSPATH the browser uses. This would
mean you have to install it on every machine that has to use that applet.
It's possible, although things are not normally done that way.
