I have an applet that is essentially a viewer for a certain custom

Is it possible to have just one applet load and use this single
applet to
view several of these images on a single web page? I suspect that
would
save both a lot of download time and a lot of memory.
It would have to be a single Applet managing all the views inside its
own
boundaries. Each applet is an independent component on a web page.
Every
applet has its own context and classloader, for security reasons.
Sharing
would violate that security, or at least complicate it.
However, you might try using the extensions facility of JAR-files, or
perhaps the Class-Path attribute:
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/jar/jar.html#Main
Attributes>
Is there a way to use a tiny stub applet that would appear multiple
times
on a web page, whose only purpose would be to load and invoke only one
single java "library" that does all the real work?
