Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)

Hi,

I just wanted to know if anyone can tell me what this error message means, and perhaps give me a pointer to where im wrong...

It allso returns a stacktrace which points to the "con = DriverManager..." line...

I appreciate any help i can get in this matter, been struggeling with this for quite a few days now...

Applet-page is hosted on an Apache webserver (my webhosts server), which also run mysql and php... Not sure what versions thay use.

Thanks in advance
