Keyboard input failure in 2nd java applet
The (London) Times offers crosswords developed as Java applets. With Mandriva 2007 newly installed on my laptop (Firefox 1.5.0.8, JRE1.5.0_08), I completed one crossword and loaded a second: no keyboard input to cells, no focus shown on cells. Killed the applet, reloaded: same problem. Quit Firefox, restarted crossword: same problem. Quit session, restarted, reloaded Firefox and crossword: same problem.
Upgraded to Firefox 2.0 and JRE1.5.0_09. Started a crossword with a couple of entries, quit and started a second: same problem - no focus on cell, no input.
I think this is connected in some way with Mandriva 2007, because the combination Mandriva 2006 with Firefox 1.5.0.7 and JRE 1.4.2-09 works correctly.
I believe the problem lies initially with Java, because keyboard input to non-Java pages in Firefox worked without problems.
