This Problem has daunted me since 0.9.7 (occurs in 0.9.8 and 0.9.9 as well as
1.0rc1)

1) I Load a basic HTML page with an applet. 
2) The applet's start() method calls the JS function forward() from the HTML page.
3) only the alert statement in the forward() function before the assignment
actually works. 

Sample Code:
-----------------------------------


<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>SupFS LMS - Student Login</TITLE>
<META http-equiv="expires" CONTENT="-1">
<META http-equiv="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">

<SCRIPT language="javascript">

var API = null;

function forward() {
// called from LMSAPIAdapter.start()

//statement works;
alert('forward call1');

//this line causes the problem!! 
API=window.document.LMSAPIAdapter;

//statement never executed
alert('forward call2');


}

</SCRIPT>

</HEAD>

<BODY BGCOLOR="#006699" MARGINHEIGHT=0 MARGINWIDTH=0 TOPMARGIN=0 LEFTMARGIN=0>
<IFRAME HEIGHT="100%" WIDTH="150" SCROLLING="auto" id="ControlFrame"

        height="0"
        name="LMSAPIAdapter"
        width="0"
        scriptable="true"
        MAYSCRIPT="true"
        MAYSCRIPT
        SCRIPTABLE>
  <param name="code" VALUE = "client/APIAdapterApplet.class" >
  <param name="codebase" VALUE = "/lms" >
  <param name="type" VALUE="application/x-java-applet;version=1.4">

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. load html page with applet
2. wait

Actual Results:  Alert Statement #1 executes.
Browser/Plugin Hangs.

Expected Results:  Alert Statement #1 executes.
Alert Statement #2 executes.

This is done with JRE 1.4.0
In Linux, the code works fine.
