Summary: Crash in JmolApplet with NullPointerException

Initial Comment:
Expected Behaviour:
Open (e.g.) http://jmol.sourceforge.net/demo/trace/ in a tab, create a new tab 
and (again) go to http://jmol.sourceforge.net/demo/trace/ in the new tab. 
Switching between each tab shows a running Jmol applet in each.

Buggy Behaviour:
Same instructions as above. Only the applet in the newest tab works, the older 
tab has an applet that is black background, no molecule display and the word 
Jmol in the lower-left of the applet.

A dump of the console is attached including a backtrace showing the 
NullPointerException.

Relevant software:
*Jmol 12.2.7
*Firefox (Iceweasel)  8.0
*IcedTea Web plugin 1.1.4
*OpenJDK 6b23~pre11

Message:
This is not a Jmol problem, it's a browser bug. I'm seeing the expected
behavior in Firefox 8/Windows 7 at that site. Please report it to Iceweasel
support. Looks like you have a good case and good example. They should be
able to find the problem relatively quickly. 

>From that error trace it's pretty clear that the browser sent an
applet.destroy() call to the first applet (which later triggered an
exception in the Jmol g3d package, because the renderer had a null platform
field). I'm guessing it happened when the second tab was opened and the
first page became hidden. Please pass that on to them.
