Using a Jar file into my jar project (Applet)

Question

Hy,
I would like to know how I have to do to put a jar library in my jar file (containing my classes) ?
I use only 2 classes of that particular jar library (Regex.class & RegRes.class), and when I only put the jar file (patbinfree153.jar), the applet stops when its reaches the first line where i use this class.
this line :
Regex Mon_Regex = new Regex("(([<][iI][mM][gG][^>]+)[sS][rR][cC][=][\"]{0,1}([^\"> ]*))");However, it works when I launch the applet in AppletViewer, but doesn't work anymore when I create a jar file, and open it through my web browser. (I signed already my jar file, and it works until it reaches this line). That it to say that the jvm can find the 2 external classes when I run the program trough Eclipse, but can't find them when I create my package .jar. (I hope I am clear)
Do I need to extract the folders of this jar file ? Because I dont think the import works with those two classes. Or can I just put those 2 classes like my own classes, in this case, what to write for the import line ?
the import I do :
import com.stevesoft.pat.*;Thanks ^^

I think I found a beginnig of solution, but I still have trouble.
In the tutorial you gave me, it is said to add the following line in the manifest file to use jar in jar :
Class-Path: JAR-FILE.jar(here is the source : http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/deployment/jar/downman.html)
I did it, it works fine locally, but when i put my html, jar, files on my web site, my applet seams not to find the other jar file again.
Locally, the architecure is the following :
\upload4.html
\upload4.jar (its manifest have the class-path line linking with patbinfree153.jar)
\patbinfree153.jar (contains 2 classes I need)I uploaded the same architecture on my web site, but it doesn't work. The applet stops when it reaches the 1st line where I need one of the patbinfree153 classes.
Any idea ? :-)
