      The Choice drop down menu behavior has changed from 1.3.1 to 1.4, and should be noted in the J2SE 1.4 Release Notes.

      In 1.3.1, you could click anywhere on the choice bar and the menu would "drop down".

      In 1.4, you can only click on the arrow selector on the right hand side of the Choice bar. Clicking anywhere else on the Choice bar does nothing.

      Also, the symbol on the Choice bar has changed from a bar to an arrow/bar combination.

      To understand the differences, run the demo in /demo/applets/DitherTest
      %appletviewer example1.html
      with both a 1.3.1 JRE,and a 1.4 JRE.
