Refresh Reload in Safari.....

[swuth]

Hi,

we use the <param name="separate_jvm" value="true"> on the PC so that people can refresh/reload without any issues. However... this does not work in Safari (Mac or PC) In the eclipse appletloader when I hit reload

I get this.....

Shutting Down
End Shutting Down

I am shutting everything down but when it tries to reload the applet and run it, the display createWindow is failing miserably. I have tried using system.exit to shut the thing down but that closes down Safari too. Any ideas, I have been pulling my hair out with this one.

make sure that parent.isDisplayable is true ?
does http://lwjgl.org/applet/ work with reload? - if so, its probably a JME issue

Mac OS runs java 5 on most of their hardware, so new params like one arenot supported by the platform.  That is System.exit will exit safari on os x. moreover, safari does not run the new java plugin, too (both mac and pc).
