Here's what I needed to do to always find the correct location of my applet
window:
public void paint(Graphics g)
{
myAppWindow.updateGeometry(g);
}
Where the method updateGeometry() for my appwindow dervived thing does
basically this:
public void updateGeometry(Graphics g)
{
// Find out where the window is in relation
// to the java browser window
realX = g.originX;
realY = g.originY;
}
Note I don't repaint in this method, I just handle what happens to my window
when the browser main window is scrolled or resized.
Good Luck
