All--

I stumbled upon the ol' ProgressMeter which seems to wrap the functionality I
need.. but I would like to reiterate a question asked on one of these boards.
My applet calls JOptionPane several times.. and it seems that when called
repeatedly, JOptionPane.showXXXdialog draws with some property settings from
previous draws, even if I have since changed them.  For example, I have one
Pane that inputs a value.. title "Input Value".. I then have another Pane
that has a JComboBox and a JTextField in it.. title "Select Value".. but the
second Pane shows up the same size as the first one (it should be bigger to
handle the additional components!) and the title bar still reads "Input
Value".  Does anyone know what is going on?  I've tried using an actual
component for parentComponent and null, but that doesn't do it.

Thanks in advance for help--

PS--I've noticed that the vast majority of questions asked on these board go
unanswered.. are people getting replies via email or are they just not
answerable (ie bug).. do people from Sun ever think about reading these boards
and seeing how their bug-filled code is giving us all migraines?
