Liveconnect: problem during the init() phase of the applet under IE

Hi all,

I wrote a small text editor (using a JTextPane) in order to ease the
use of a CMS, in a more
WYSIWYG way. Basically, you can see directly the effect of setting the
background color, the
text color, bold/italic/underlined styles and so on... You can have
several applet on one page
as there is one applet per column and per language.

As it's used in a CMS, it uses liveconnect (javascript interaction)
massively to get the default
values of the styles and the content text from the HTML page.

The problem is that on first page load, the applet doesn't initialize
correctly: the background
color is not always loaded correctly, neither are the text color or
style. It can happen that
the text of one applet is duplicated in another. It even happens that
in place of the content
text, I find the value of the text color (ie. #777777), the value of
the text alignment or
whatever.

Note the this problem occurs under IE exclusively and fades away on
page reload. Firefox, Opera
and Konqueror work just fine.

So at first sight, the problem is due to a bad page loading in IE, so I
placed several sleep()
in the applet init() method: one before each style initialization. I
also tried to delay applet
initialization with JS.
Sadly, it doesn't seem to have any effect.

Does anyone here already encountered this problem ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Can not connect.

None of the "buzzwords" ring a bell.

Sorry. Good luck

We don't need no stinking "Conqueror"

Have had enough of this shit.

Hi, I've created a Java Applet that allows the user to select a record. As the user makes the selection, the applet uses LiveConnect (JSObject) to write the record id to a html field (the name of which is passed in to the applet as an arg). This all works fine, but now I have two instances of the same applet running on a page, both linked to different HTML fields so that making a selection from applet 1 updates html field 1, a...

Here are the source code files to a Java applet that utilizes LiveConnect to communicate with Javascript, and the HTML file. The thing works both in IE 6.0 and FireFox 1.4. but with some problems. IE crashes when one refreshes the page or leave the page. This happens only after calling the Java method more than once. It does not crash if the Java method is called just once and then the page is refreshed. FireFox does not crash at all...

Hi I am facing the following problem. I load a fact table with around 25 millons lines, and 7 indexes. I load it with 3 million line subsets. I am on a quadriprocessor Solaris machine. The loading phase seems quite efficient and seems to be well parallelized. But the build phase is long and seems to use only one processor. Very low IO wait occurs during this phase. Is there something can I do to fasten this process? I guess that if the 4...

I am trying to communicate back to my web page using LiveConnect. I just installed JDK5 Netbeans and have created a few applets. I have even called the applets from Javascript. However when I use the import line below it doesnt find the library. I looked for jaws.jar but its not under the Java directory. Does anyone know where it is? Do I have to download it? import netscape.javascript.*;

Hi all, The facts : a rich text editing applet, a HTML/Javascript toolbar and Liveconnect to make them communicate alltogether. - Java to JS communication (for updating the state of the toolbar - text align, style, color) is OK - JS to Java communication (for changing text align, style, color) doesn't work as expected : * Under Firefox, the first call of a Java method is DAMN SLOW (near 20

Hi. I have an application consisting of some JFrames and threads ,and other classes as well. I developed it as ordinary application, having in mind to re-make it to be applet. I have launching file with just about one line of code launching Client JFrame. This launching file itself was just a java application,not a JFrame. I remade it so that it would extend JAppet. After I run it in NetBeans 6.1 it worked fine with this JApplet.But...

Hey Guys, I'm currently writing a java applet for my class and I've run into a quirky little problem. I assure you answering this won't be considered cheating in anyway since it's just a bug and not the solution to the assignment. I have 5 buttons that I need to use at different times in the applet. initially I need to have two on the screen (buttons B1 and B2). so in my init() I have these two added to the applet. Then once either of...
