I agree that modal Windows aren't allways the best solution, and I
would try another way if I have one.

But how can I tell a window to "stay-on-top" ?
Is there a method that I don't know about ?


B.t.w., the MessageBox works perfect when the applet is runnig as
a application or within appletviewer.
But when I use a browser, the MessageBox drops behind the browser
when I'm clickin on Netscape.

More worth, there isn't anything to see in the taskbar.
Only by using Alt+Tab, it is possible to reach the MessageBox again.

Thx again,
