Here is a simple applet that reproduce the problem. Run it on the 1.3.0 beta
refresh plug-in.

package ntdca.report;

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class Applet1 extends JApplet {

  //Initialize the applet
  public void init() {
    try{
      UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
      this.getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
      JComboBox box=new JComboBox();
      this.getContentPane().add(box,BorderLayout.NORTH);
      box.setBackground(Color.blue);
      box.addItem("Ciao");
    }catch(Exception ex){ex.printStackTrace();}
  }
}
