FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
1.6_04
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
In Mozilla Firefox when opening the same applet in multiple tabs (or multiple windows), closing one instance of the applet will cause the other applet to crash. This works in 1.6_03, but not in 1.6_04 or later.
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Open the sample applet in 2 separate Mozilla Firefox tabs. Close either of the 2 instances. I used the following HTML
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>TEST APPLET</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
<APPLET NAME="TEST APPLET" CODE="TestApplet.class" width=100% height=100%>
</APPLET>
</BODY>
</HTML>
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The applet you chose to close should exit, leaving one completely functional applet left running.
ACTUAL -
The remaining tab goes gray and the status bar indicates "Applet Test Applet bail"
REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
