Hi fellow Java programmers,

How do I get the Window parent of an Applet for me to spawn other objects 
like TextArea or TextField? I have a few TextAreas in my applet, but the 
Container I used to construct the TextAreas was the one in 

	Applet.item.parent,

which gives the parent of the whole html page, ie the coordinate (0,0) 
points to the origin of the whole html document rather than the origin of 
the applet. I guess you can imagine the problems in aligning text windows 
in this way! 

So which Container do I use to construct the TextArea such that (0,0) 
refers to the origin of the Applet?

Thanks

Henry
