Hi All,
I am working on an applet that runs on a browser in the background and refreshes the users page frames when something has changed on the server. This is a two step process where the first is to check if something has changed. This is accomplished with a URLConnection. When something has changed a refresh servlet is called using ?getAppletContext().showDocument(refresh,target_)?. The user selects proposal numbers to view proposals and each time a proposal is selected the applet is reloaded. My troubles come in Netscape 4.7(NS), where after a while NS startes ?Prunning? old instances of the applet which calls the destroy() method of the old applet instance. After NS does the prune it?s like the getAppletContext line when executed goes nowhere. Can someone tell me specifically what is going.
Thanks in advance for you help
