Code seems to be wrong only in IE so must be something to do with security settings. Thanks anyway.

I believe MySQL is alright because the various tools retrieve data correctly. But when my Java web app is run from NetBeans, Tomcat shows the homepage but then gives a Java null pointer error. The logs tell me this is to do with retrieving user data from the database. So I'm assuming that the two system components are not able to talk to each other. But why? I have mySQLConnector in the NetBeans library my web app is using. I've placed MySQL Connector in Tomcat's config folder, MySQL Connector is also in the classpath of the PC. The context.xml file in the web app is set to use the root user in MySQL and all relevant authorities in MySQL are set. But I get nothing! Although I have the same tools on another PC and they are fine. Any ideas? Is there something I've missed? Thanks Martin O'Shea. Thanks Martin O'Shea
