Description

[Raymie Humbert]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070206 Firefox/3.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070206 Firefox/3.0.1

I have a Java applet open with text inside. It works well.

I'm in another tab, doing something else, and a UI glitch appears. It tells me that a new line of text came up in the Java applet.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a Java applet with text features - Chatango, etc.
2. Leave it in the background and browse another site.
3. Notice the UI glitch.



I am on 10.5.4 on a MacBook (Late 2007). I do have a 64-bit Java installation.
