I have an applet that checks it's origins but sometimes it just fails...

if the browser can resolve
http://www.somedomain.com/somefolder/somepage.html why the applet won't
resolve www.somedomain.com?

code used:

sref = this.getDocumentBase().getHost();

try
{
hip = hip.getByName(sref);
ship = hip.toString();
}
catch(UnknownHostException uhe)
{
ship = "[" + this.getDocumentBase().toString() + "][" + sref + "]";
}

System.out.println(ship);


it fails about 5% of the time...

thanks for any help

Does the browser use a proxy? If so, it's the proxy that does the
lookup on its behalf.

sorry, I should have said that I get the message from the catch part,
meaning it didn't get resolved...
