Yeah, it's a known bug. I just don't have time fixing it. What happens is
that the plugin-window resize event does not get propagated to the Squeak
window (which is embedded in the plugin-window).

Nah ... it's just not visible anymore ;-)

You can resize the browser window and the plugin gets visible again. On
some browsers (haven't determined which, yet) it even continues running
instead of reloading the page. The problem is that Netscape *destroys* the
plugin window with each page re-layout, like when you resize the browser
window. That's a major pain in the neck. I haven't found anybody really
Xlib savvy who could tell me how to save an embedded window when the
parent window is destroyed.

Really, the window resizing stuff is rather complicated - I'm glad I at
least got the fullscreen stuff to work.

Thanks :)

Probably we should move this discussion over to the Squeak list, there
might be even more people interested in this.
