Hi,
> Try setting the background color to null.
One might suppose that what should happen is that the browser would leave
the background in its original pristine state, and then unless the applet
painted itself, that background would stay the way it was. I think most
(read: all) browsers paint the applet with some default colour (ugly
gray?).
An alternate solution would be for the applet to ask the browser what the
background looked like originally. This could/would be done through
AppletContext. Alas, such a method does not exist, so you're pretty much
out of luck, at least in the general case.
It's important to make the distinction between actually making the applet
transparent and making it look transparent. As far as I can see in
general, the first is not possible, while the second is relatively easy.
Cheers,
dstn.
