In eclipse I made a project inside the src folder. I made a package called res inside it I put all of the html/gif files.

Can someone please give me the line of code that would change button with the new location?

setIcon(new ImageIcon("Back24.gif"));

Can also please provide an example of doing the same thing with an HTML file called index.html in the same location as the icon?

htmlPane.setPage("file:\\" +path +"\\Contents.html");

I would also like to ask if I create a jar with all of these resource files inside and I take that jar to another PC would it still find and load these resource?

Would you also like some coffee and donuts with that code? – Hovercraft Full Of Eels Jun 10 '12 at 22:11

`"file:\\" +path +"\\Contents.html"` is ***not*** a valid URL. Try forming a file, check that it exists, then print the result of `file.toURI().toURL()` to see the mistake. – Andrew Thompson Jun 10 '12 at 22:32
