Modal dialogs not working properly in CDE.  If true, modal dialog should block input to other windows - this functions properly in Openwin but not in CDE.
When running the same scenario in CDE, input is NOT restricted or blocked
from other windows.  Same occurs when testing  with JDK1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2 

This behavior is not experienced from appletviewer...
This is causing great angst....please help.

EVALUATION robert.obrien@Eng 1997-06-12 We need detailed info on how to reproduce this including sample source. Marking as incomplete pending a reply from the submitter. bhanks@eng 1997-06-13 This appears to be a duplicate of 4044219, so unless I hear back from the submittor stating otherwise by Wednsday 6/18, I will close as a duplicate. bhanks@eng 1997-06-16 Added user test cases as attachments. There definitely is a difference when running the test cases under AppletViewer as opposed to hotjava. If hotjava was to do the same thing that Appletviewer does, it well may lead to a denial of service attack. We here at Sunsoft don't really consider this a P1S1 bug, forwarding onto javasoft for their assessment. bill.foote@Eng 1997-06-26 I observe the same behavior in both HotJava and appletviewer. That is, the applet creates two (overlapping) dialogs with a button that says "click here". When you click, it creates a dialog. Under fvwm (with the OpenWindows Motif libraries), this dialog is modal -- clicking on the other "click here" dialog does nothing. On my neighbor's machine, which is a vanilla CDE install, the dialog isn't modal. This is true for both appletviewer and HotJava. Looks like an AWT bug. Fixed by changing the Dialog Modal style from PRIMARY_APPLICATION to FULL_APPLICAITON. Notice that this change reverts the fix in BugId 4029855. Change reviewed by Amy Fowler. xianfa.deng@Eng 1997-12-22
