Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 164712

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[James French]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020826

I put the above url in as an example. However none of the pages that I tested
with liveconnect worked. I turned on the java Console and when the java tries to
make the call back to the javascript the following exception is thrown

Exception occurred during event dispatching:
netscape.javascript.JSException
	at netscape.javascript.JSObject.getWindow(JSObject.java:141)
	at Pendulum.setWinVal(Pendulum.java:77)

On the other hand when you try to set the length of the Pendulum from the
javascript side the browser just sit there without any feed back. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to the Untilities in the Applications folder. Then choose java and the java
plugin settings and choose to have the java console on
2.go to the above url. click to start the applet.
3.Then put in a length for the Pendulum

Actual Results:  
When the applet is first click on the applet it throws the java exception.
When a length is put in nothing happens

Expected Results:  
When the applet is clicked on the length should show in the test box below the
applet. When a legth is entered it should change the actul length of the
pendulum in the applet

James, is this a new problem specific to Mac 10.2?
Was all this working in the previous release of Mac OS X?

This use to work in Mozilla with the mrjplugin. However now that they have gone
to the java Applet.plugin it is no longer working.
