hi,
try this in Your code of SvgParser (constructor):
public SvgParser(String strfromapplet) throws SAXException{
          // Create a JAXP SAXParserFactory and configure it
          SAXParserFactory loSPF = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
          loSPF.setValidating(false);
          XMLReader loXMLReader = null;
try{
               // Create a JAXP SAXParser
               SAXParser loSaxParser = loSPF.newSAXParser();
               // Get the encapsulated SAX XMLReader
               loXMLReader = loSaxParser.getXMLReader();
          // Set the ContentHandler of the XMLReader
          loXMLReader.setContentHandler(this);
          // Set an ErrorHandler before parsing
          loXMLReader.setErrorHandler(this);
          try
               // Tell the XMLReader to parse the XML document
               loXMLReader.parse(strfromapplet);
          catch(SAXException se)
               System.err.println(se.getMessage());
               System.exit(1);
          catch(IOException ioe)
               System.err.println(ioe);
               System.exit(1);
}catch(IOException io){
io.printStackTrace();
