your problem seems to me to be that you need to get a handle on the root
applet so that you can then build children any which way you like. obviously
you'll have to preserve this reference yourself in each child frame/dialog.
(this means you have to use extensions to the JDialog class that declare
references to the original parent applet)

- This can be done using a declaration and statement in the root applet
(called RootApplet.java), like:

public static RootApplet parentApplet;


and then in init() method of the applet:

{
    parentApplet = this;
..
}

dialogs / child frames can then be access the reference to the parent from
anywhere simply by referencing

JApplet myParentApplet = RootApplet.parentApplet;

myParentApplet is the handle you need

hope this is of some help
