The applet made by using JDK1.1.2 dosen't work properly when=20
using Java plug-in(ver1.2.2), in the following case;
The height of cell which is obtained by FontMetrics.getHeight()=20
method is not correct.
Also FontMetrics.getDescent(),FontMetrics.getAscent() is not
correct.

Here are examples of behavior of getXXX() method.

                               NetcapeJDK1.1 JavaPlug-in1.2.2
         schemeFM.getHeight() 14(true) 20=81ifalse=81j
         schemeFM.getDescent() =81@2(true) 5=81ifalse=81j
         schemeFM.getAscent() 2(true) 5=81ifalse=81j

Sample source code which includes getHeight() method is below;

public class getHeightApplet extends Applet {

  public static final Font LIST_FONT =3D new Font("monospaced", Font.PLAIN,=
 14);
  private final Font SCHEMEFONT =3D LIST_FONT; // font for cell
  // metrics of font for cell
  private FontMetrics schemeFM =3D this.getFontMetrics(SCHEMEFONT);
  private Label label1 =3D new Label( "Font Size =3D 14" );
  private Label lblHeight =3D new Label();

  //architect of applet
  public getHeightApplet() {
        add( label1 );
        add( lblHeight );

        lblHeight.setText( "getHeight()=3D" + schemeFM.getHeight() );

  }

  //initialize applet
  public void init() {
  }

}
