      : Java Applet Application not working in Latest JRE(1.8update91orabove) and with Firefox version ( >=42)

      There are two issues seen

      1) Accessing applet members (document.applets['idJavaSun'].status/errorcode) gives 'undefined' even though applet in operational mode [ here status/errorcode are public member of our Applet Application]

      2) Applet authorization is not done( or not happening ) by JVM at first attempt and not evidenced in Java Console log ( we should see below sort of permission requisition&granted in JavConsole log – but it is not happening)
