jQuery and Java applets

Question

I\'m working on a project where we\'re using a Java applet for part of the UI (a map, specifically), but building the rest of the UI around the applet in HTML/JavaScript, commun

Answer 1

For the first issue, how about trying

alert( $("#applet-id")[0].foo() );

For the second issue here is a thread with a possible workaround.

Quoting the workaround

// Prevent memory leaks in IE
// And  prevent errors on refresh with events  like mouseover in other  browsers
// Window isn't included so as not to unbind existing unload events
jQuery(window).bind("unload",
function() {
        jQuery("*").add(document).unbind();
});

change that code to:

// Window isn't included so as not to unbind existing unload events
jQuery(window).bind("unload",
function() {
        jQuery("*:not('applet, object')").add(document).unbind();
});
