Re: reinitializing an applet

Hello.
I have a problem with an applet: http://monique.damichel.club.fr/siteweb/=
page8.html
The applet of geometry works when I open this HTML page.
As Dave pointed out with his 'null' result in FF3,
it is important to consider browser (make and version)
as well as Java (make and version) when considering
applet problems.
(Applets are a PITA)
When I test that page using IE6 and Java 1.6.0_05,
navigate to another page then back, the graphics of
the applet are 'all screwed up' with artifacts of other
parts of pages represented in the applet area.
I am not sure if it crashes, since I could not understand
what it was supposed to do in the first place. Clicking
the buttons etc. tends to clear up the display.
*Note that this problem could not happen if you launch
the applet using webstart.*
But when I go to an other page, for example accueil (home in english)
and I come back, it crashes.
There is no error message in the stacktrace.
I saw no stacktraces at all. Suspiciously, all I saw
was..
[console OP]
...
0-5: set trace level to <n>

m=E9thode stop
[/console OP]
Did you have debugging messages attached to start()/init()
etc? Some browsers have been known to ignore calls to
methods like stop()/destroy(), but I had never heard that
applied to start()/init().
...I tried to destroy the
applet (destroy method) in the stop method but it doesn't work.
Is there a way of reinitializing the applet when the HTML page is
reopened?
The easiest solution is webstart, though I suspect
that applet has bugs.
(sorry for my english).

Why is it invariably the people who could 'pass for
pommie' that apologize for their use of English?
