I'm not one to resist a challenge, I tested the applet against Safari on
my Windows XP, and it worked also.

Safari 5.0.3, Windows XP, JDK 1.6.0_31 (and corresponding plugin).

FWIW my test environment is very spare. The JApplet itself is
uncomplicated, and the 2 lines I showed you are the only ones that talk
to JavaScript. The JavaScript is the function I showed, and it's the
only JavaScript in the page that contains the applet. And my applet tag
*is* an <applet> tag, not an <object> tag, with only the 'code' and
'archive' attributes. I'm not saying you want to, or can, simplify that
much (considering you want to support many browsers) but it's what
worked for me in Safari on both Mac OS X and Win XP for this scenario.
