Platform: ER5

Question:
I know it is not possible to close down a Java app without ending the emulator session, but what about applets running in Web?

Answer:
Because, unlike Java applications, applets in Web run in restricted mode inside a "sandbox", it is possible to run applets successively in a single session of Web on the emulator. However, a second applet-containing page cannot be launched by clicking twice on it in the system shell as the VM being used by the first does not shut down cleanly in this case.
