Hi,

I have met with two problems while developping applets. I would like
to know if there are ways to avoid these.

Involuntary overloading superclass variables
-------------------------------------------- 
I have defined w, l, width and height variables in some of my classes
with immediate consequences on the placement of instances of such
classes in my panels. I think I thus destroyed crucial superclass
information.  It also seems to me that nothing prevents me from doing
it. The compiler does not issue any messages if I do.  It happens that
I use embedded applets (J. Payne's flavor), but I think this can
happen for any class. It seems so simple for javac to issue a warning,
and it would be so useful ! Maybe I missed something ?

Multi-language messages/labels
------------------------------
I have lots of labels in my panels. These labels are in french right
now.  I would like a simple way to make them multi-lingual. I think I
can come up with some scheme to do this, but I wondered if you already
have a "standard" way ?

Thanks.
JC
