OK, two threads of discussion here.
1) DO NOT poll the applet with a setTimeout(). This will occasionally crash
the applet and could cause one of the strangest bugs in Firefox -- while
polling, if you type in the address line, your text comes out sdrawkcab. No
kidding. I kid you not.
2) You need to get loadStructCallback working. If you can't, ask. It's
really the only way to go.
3) \? and \*. Great idea. I should be able to do that easily enough.
