Netscape Java - > JavaScript Hang on Sun ... Help!

843798Oct 2 2001 — edited Oct 10 2001
Here's the situation: I have 2 applets on a web page portal
1 - utilizes Swing to create a table or list of items that
map to other webpages or require a JavaScript call to run
2 - ... in some cases the target JavaScript is in fact a method
call within another applet

In order to use Swing the first applet is enclosed in an <Embed> block on Netscape (4.7)
or an <Object> block for IE (5,5)

The second is included in the normal <Applet> block, so that I can reference the methods within the applet. This second applet also needs to request some permissions (Request/Grant a'la JRE 1.1 found within NS).

Everything works on the PC . . . but things are not going so well on the Sun.
I am running the current (1.3.1) plugin under Netscape 4.76 on the Sun.
If I click a link to a JavaScript

An interesting side effect of installing Plug-in 1.3.1 was that the default font used by the default Netscape JVM (JRE 1.1), it's Java Console, and the labels created by applet number 2 are modified ... so an additional question is "how can I prevent this or reset them?"

Any and all assistance will be greatly appreciated ....

Regards,

John
