Calling JOptionPane.showInternalMessageDialog has no effect.
No dialog is shown, and the code falls through to the next line.

External dialogs still work OK.

Sample Code:

public class Frame1 extends JFrame {
    BorderLayout borderLayout1 = new BorderLayout();
    JDesktopPane desktop = new JDesktopPane();
    javax.swing.JToolBar jToolBar1 = new javax.swing.JToolBar();
    javax.swing.JButton jButton1 = new javax.swing.JButton();
    javax.swing.JButton jButton2 = new javax.swing.JButton();

    public Frame1() {
        try {
            jbInit();
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    private void jbInit() throws Exception {
        jButton1.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                jButton1_actionPerformed(e);
            }
        });
        this.addWindowListener(new java.awt.event.WindowAdapter() {
            public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
                this_windowClosing(e);
            }
        });
        this.getContentPane().setLayout(borderLayout1);
        jButton1.setText("External Dialog");
        jButton2.setText("Internal Dialog");
        jButton2.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                jButton2_actionPerformed(e);
            }
        });
        this.getContentPane().add(desktop, BorderLayout.CENTER);
        this.getContentPane().add(jToolBar1, BorderLayout.NORTH);
        jToolBar1.add(jButton1, null);
        jToolBar1.add(jButton2, null);

    }

    void jButton1_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "This is a test");
        System.out.println("This should not show until I click on OK");
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        JFrame f = new Frame1();
        f.reshape(50, 50, 500, 300);
        f.show();
    }

    void this_windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
        System.exit(0);
    }

    void jButton2_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        JOptionPane.showInternalMessageDialog(desktop, "This is a test");
        System.out.println("This should not show until I click on OK");
    }
}

Source code follows:

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class IFrame extends JFrame
{
public String s;
     public IFrame()
     {
          super("i-Frame");
          setSize(400, 200);
          show();
          setContentPane(new JDesktopPane());
          JInternalFrame theFrame = new JInternalFrame("Just a test...");
          getContentPane().add(theFrame);
          theFrame.show();
          theFrame.setBounds(10, 10, 100, 100);
          s = JOptionPane.showInternalInputDialog(getContentPane(), "Hello, dialog world!");
     }
     public static void main(String args[])
     {
          new IFrame();
     }
}

The issue is this: under beta 1.3, the above code snippet runs, but the internal
input dialog doesn't appear, along with any other internal dialog generated by
a JOptionPane. The other JInternalFrame is there in the code to illustrate that
it _is_ possible to create and display other JInternalFrames. Even more jarring
is that at the end of the constructor, (s == null) tests true! Worth noting is that
no exceptions get thrown, either.
