In this case we are not interesting in pluginFocusedWindow or focus events anymore, since all applets in the window are destroyed. If we go back to the applet's page, all applets will be started from scratch.

If the page is refreshed, all applets will be restarted by Java Plugin 
and the focus will be set to the firs applet on the page. We do not care 
about pluginFocusedWindow in this case.

You are right. I updated the field's name. Please find new version here:

This information is only used for focus restoring when the window becomes active again. So I think that is enough to update pluginFocusedWindow only in handleWindowFocusEvent() when the browser's window becomes inactive.

>>>>>> When a browser's window becomes active/inactive, the browser generates WindowFocusEvent and sends it to the applets via Java Plugin. So the order of the events is defined by the browser. I tested several browsers - all of them sends WindowFocusEvent(parentWindow=false) to the active window and then WindowFocusEvent(parentWindow=true) to inactive window during switching between two browser's windows. It looks like this is common practice for such operation. However, I did not find any docs which can confirm this behavior.
