Problem using the gnujaxp jar in an applet

Hello,

I am attempting to use the gnujaxp.jar file to support an applet I am 
writing for a school project. However, when I attempt to load the 
applet, it doesn't work, instead the java console displays a stack trace 
(see below) complaining of a duplicate entry for META-INF/

I just can't seem to get this to work. The code does work from a regular 
swing application.

Anyone have any ideas how I can get this working?

Thanks.

The stack trace:
