    Subject: Interesting applet problem with Netscape

I just wrote an applet-game that works fine with AppleViewer but
sort of hangs on Netscape 3.01, not Gold, on a Mac. I put the .java, .html,
.class, and other necessary files into:
ftp://korea.berkeley.edu/shared/www/broken.

It is a running applet with a thread that spins a ball around. When you
click on the graphics, it will launch a Frame, which in turn launches
three windows (I had to put up the windows in order to receive mouse
events... if there is a way to get around this...) When you click on the
topmost
window, a game begins. (A slightly buggy asteroids game.

In Netscape, the topmost window seems to be active, but does not do
anything. There is no response to mouse clicks except on the menu bar. If
you select
file-close, the Frame and the other two windows go away, but not the
topmost window.

Please help!
