On Plugin test case, clicking the choice menu, the following exceptions are thrown on Java Console;

java.lang.NullPointerException

Alothogh exception throws, apllet works.
I chcked this problem with the following jdk release.
    1.4.1 fcs b21 - NOT reproducible
    1.4.1_01 b01 - NOT reproducible
    1.4.1_02 b01 - NOT reproducible
              b06 - reproducible
    1.4.1_03 ea b01 - reproducible
    1.4.2 beta b19 - NOT reproducible.

This problem does not occur on jdk1.4.1 and jdk1.4.1_01 b01, thererore, this is a regression.
It seems that this problem is occured between 1.4.1_02 b02 and b06.

* This problem does not occur on Solaris IA.

To reproducee;
1.Install JRE 1.4.1_03 ea b01 on Solaris sparc.
2. setenv NPX_PLUGIN_PATH
3. Invoke Netscape 4.7x browser
4. Go to the URL
   http://i18n-u1-26c.sfbay.sun.com:8080/jaws-i18n/doc/plugin-bat.html
5. Click "I18N Test Case #2 (I18n 2D Test)
   http://i18n-u1-26c.sfbay.sun.com:8080/jaws-i18n/test/bat/basic2d.html
6. test case comes up.
7. Click choice menu(font, style, size etc...)

Then, an exception are thrown on Java Console.

Although this test case exists a stand alone test case which is included in
GlobalSuite, this problem does not occur.

As this problem occurred only on plugin testing, I filed Category as a "plugin".
