/**
 * partial test program from the sourceforge bug report 1453161
 * that says you get a  random "can't map name to dispid" when
 * getting the URL from the player
 * <p>
 * May need to run with some command line options (including from inside Eclipse).  
 * Look in the docs area at the Jacob usage document for command line options.
