I have a weird problem. Firefox is refusing to exit when I'm on a page
containing a JApplet I'm writing, unless I navigate off that page first. I
have also tried a barebones JApplet created by the Eclipse visual editor;
the only thing I've changed is to add a stop() method:
package com.stevesobol.gallery.editor;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import javax.swing.JApplet;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
public class Test extends JApplet {
private JPanel jContentPane = null;
/**
* This is the xxx default constructor
*/
public Test() {
super();
}
/**
* This method initializes this
*
* @return void
*/
public void init() {
this.setSize(300, 200);
this.setContentPane(getJContentPane());
}
/**
* This method initializes jContentPane
*
* @return javax.swing.JPanel
*/
private JPanel getJContentPane() {
if (jContentPane == null) {
jContentPane = new JPanel();
jContentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
}
return jContentPane;
}
public void stop() {
System.out.println("stopping");
}
}

The stop() method is called, but Firefox remains resident in memory. If I
navigate off the page with the applet and then close Firefox, it exits
properly.
JRE 1.5.0_07, Firefox 1.5.0.6, WinXP SP2 with all of the updates.
Thanks in advance
