This is not a bug. According with the thread http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=577454 you have the following options to run Weather on Mac: "You Have two options. one is to sign the applet and second is to change the java.policy file of the user in jre/ext/security directory." It can be fixed on our side by generating applet.policy file for the project which grant all permissions for the project jars and setting the jvm args in the jnlp file. By this reason I change it to RFE and reassign to Adam.
There is nothing to enhance. You cannot override applet policy unless the application is signed, otherwise it would be a big security hole. If your application requires some secured classes or secured access, select the option to sign it. Then it will add <all-permissions> requirement to the JNLP and it should work. If you experience that it is still not working, please report it to the JavaFX Runtime to JIRA.
signing the jars resolves the issue. Promoted build #44 contains SDK 51 (778) Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.5 (Build 200811100001) Java: 1.6.0_10; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.0-b15 System: Windows Vista version 6.0 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb)
