I have no idea. One thing to point out is that the current implementation
works for all releases preceding JDK 1.3 and no browser supports JDK 1.3
AFAIK. In fact, I don't believe there is any browser that supports any
version of the JDK later than 1.1.x. Thus, it does not make a whole lot of
sense to develop applets with JDK 1.3 unless you are willing to take the
risk that you will inadvertently use features introduced after JDK 1.1.x.
Anyway, if you need to use the appletviewer and can't wait for my fix, use
the Debug Applet command, which runs your applet in the appletviewer, and
just continue after the breakpoint.
