The standard lifetime routine is
Constructor
init()
start()
stop()
destroy()
The constructor and init one ever get called once - when the application
is first run. Then, once the page is ready to load, start() is called.
Each time the page your applet is run is shown (forward/back buttons
etc) the start() method is called. That is init() is only ever called
once but start() many times. From readin between the lines of your post
I think you'd be looking for start().
