With the ch2ex5 approach, users on some browsers can't do keyboard input because the browser steals all of it. A better approach would be launching a separate application window from an event handler for applet GUI(button et al).

That could work. It won't be embedded in a browser. Instead, you could setup a page where they could click on a link that would open a JNLP file which would download and run your application. The catch is that they have to have a reasonably recent version Java with JWS installed on the machine. Of course, you can make a page to test for that and direct them to a download if necessary.
