Hello JB,
I've created several applets using JBuilder 3, Java 2, and IE5 to test them.
Each applet has a button that, when clicked, navigates to another HTML page
containg a different applet.  I am using only awt and swing components.  The
problem is that when ever I press the  Refresh button on the browser or if I
navigate back to a previously visited applet, the applets change their Look
& Feel from Windows to Metal!  I am running the apps on Windows NT 4.  I
specified in the code to use Windows Look & Feel before the init( ) method,
like this:

static {
    try{
      UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new
com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel());
    }
    catch (Exception e) {}
  }

Anybody got an idea on what's happening?
Thanks,
Redding
