JApplet's stop() not called

882296Sep 28 2011 — edited Sep 28 2011
Hi All,

My JApplet's stop() method is not called from IE, Chrome or Safari when I switch tabs, but is called along with the destroy() method when I close the tab that includes the applet.

Could you please let me know why this behavior occurs? In the tutorials, it is mentioned that stop() will be called to release resources when the user is not viewing the applet (hence when he/she switches tabs) and I need it for the applet.

Any links or workarounds are very welcome. Thank you.

Kind Regards,
S. Gokhan Topcu
