[LDTP-Dev] Accessing Java Applet within Firefox

[Nagappan A]

Hello Smith,

Guess you are using Firefox 3.0 !?! Not sure, how well accessibility support
is available for applets inside rendering region. I suggest to try with
selenium for the rendering region and anything related to Window management,
you can use LDTP. Selenium doesn't support them.

getapplist function just returns the list of application name as per
accessibility info. getwindowlist, should return all the available windows,
but the existing implementation just returns what ever available in internal
hashtable. Will consider doing the first (soon).

Thanks
Nagappan
