Java applet issues: anyone a java programmer here?

Post by hepcat »

So our java developer created an applet that has some whackiness. when you maximize the applet window and then resize it, you can no longer see the menu items. the drop down is there, but the text is invisible. we're using java 1.4.1_02 on a windows 2000 sp4 box, by the way.

anyone seen this before?

EDIT: and it doesn't happen on the java developer's machine. i'm going to check his version of java. i think he's running a newer one.

Yeah, the java version being different could cause something like that. If it works on his machine and you have different versions that'd be my first guess.

i'm building some test images to work on this theory. should know by later today.

okay, it was the java versions. using 1.4.2_06 (or any 1.4 version) results in the problem every time. upgrading to 1.5 (or 5.0 as they now call it) fixed it.

thank god that's over with...
