7u4 b06 and b07

FireFox and Chrome both fail on b06
FireFox works fine bug Chrome still fail on b07

Does this problem occur on J2SE 1.5 or 6ux? Yes / No (pick one)

works fine with 6u30, 7u2 and 7u3


Operating System Configuration Information (be specific):
Win_vista


Hardware Configuration Information (be specific):
both x32 and x64


Bug Description:

Build 6 would not even load the applets in FireFox or Google Chrome.

Build 7 is better. FireFox now loads and authenticates. Google Chrome loads the applet, but clicking the button on our sample page does not invoke the applet after it is done loading as it should. Nothing happens.

Internet explorer works for both builds I tested.

The applet does not respond to the usual JavaScript APIs.
