Oh, I have just noticed that I am using Safari 5.0.5, and I'm not sure how to go back to 5.0.4 to see if i get the same behavior as you.  Maybe you can try 5.0.5?

I upgraded to Safari 5.0.5, and it still works

The blank white area that you are reporting: are you able to apple-click on it and separate the applet from the browser?  Can you see the rendering once you separate it?  That's the behavior I am seeing when the applet is running in a separate process.

Yes, in Firefox and Chrome I can command-click and separate it, and at that point can see the rendering. Setting the Java preferences to launch in a separate process has no effect in Firefox and Chrome -- it still comes up white, and I can still separate it with command-click.

It seems like the applet is running in Firefox and Chrome, it's just not rendering for some reason.
