277859 - Java Applets appear on multiple tabs

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 162134

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Nick Bloom]

Certain Java applets running in one tab, appear in another tab with a 
completely different page.  I noticed this while looking at NOAA's Base 
Reflectivity Short Range Radar Loop (you can get to this by going to 
www.noaa.org and by putting in your zip code in the left side of the page under 
"today's weather".  On the local forecast page, click on the graphical link for 
the Radar under "Radar and Satellite Images".  On the NWS Radar Image page 
click on "Loop" next to "Base Reflectivity, Short Range".  This should load the 
Java applet to loop the radar.)   When this is loaded and I move to another 
tab, the applet showing the looped radar appears over the page, no matter what 
page is in the other tab or what tab I use or open.

How the applet appears on the NOAA page normally.

Shows the Java applet in another tab, where it shouldn't be.
