That codebase attribute, i am not able to load make this jnlp work without using the full-ip. Is there a way i can make that relative or change it dynamically.

Answer 1

Is there a way i can make that relative ..

Only for an embedded applet.

..or change it dynamically.

Sure, I guess the JNLP servlet would fill in the codebase dynamically, or would be able to with a slight tweak.
