Created by (shaman@nlc.net.au) on Friday, August 21, 1998 7:43:42 PM PDT Additional Details : When applets finish loading, they force the focus to their parent page. This is increadibly annoying, and is downright dangerous. There have been several instances when I've tried to click on a link the instant before a Java applet switched to another navigator window, where my click resulted in a completely different effect. I have to turn Java off, because when I open 5-10 news sites, they visibly 'flicker' as the focus jumps from one window to another.

This is not a mozilla bug. It's a Communicator bug, and a duplicate at that.
