But again, that's a pretty specific, narrow focus, usually what, 10 panels at the most? But that's the reason they do it so well. They focus on a specific task and then do it well. General purpose applets fare less well, and so trying to emulate a business application with 100s or 1000s of panels is a little more difficult. You either need a very intelligent applet with a lot of runtime configuration information, or a very LARGE applet, which then runs into deployment time issues. Joe
