JApplet as parent for a dialog possible?
843807Nov 20 2002 — edited Nov 26 2002Hi.
I've got a JApplet which opens a modal dialog window for some user interaction. Usually you set the dialog's parent window or frame so that the dialog always appears in front of the parent when the user switches to that task.
But since an Applet is not a frame or window, I'm not able to set it to be the dialog's parent. This results in the browser window being able to be selected - then it comes to the front, but since a modal dialog (the one of the applet) is opened, you cannot access it.
Is there any way to specify the applet or the browser window as the dialog
's parent? Currently I'm using null as parent - standalone dialogs that is.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
cheers,
