Multiple Portlets with applets on the same pane

Fellow Jetspeed Users,

I have a pane with a number of portlets (ie WebPagePortlets) arranged in
a single column with all portlets being in the minimized state at the
beginning. Each web page wrapped by the WebPagePortlet contains an
applet. Therefore to view the particualr applet, one clicks on the
portlet's "expand" icon in the portlet's title bar.

Now my question relates to the applet's event notifications - as in
init(), start(), destroy()...

If I open (expand) a second portlet containing an applet, it appears all
previously opened portlets with their applets all restart. If I minimize
one of the expanded portlets, the other applets will restart. It appears
all applets regardless of,lets say portlet focus, receive these events.

Is this behaviour correct ? I assumed being wrapped in individual
WebPagePortlets, each would have behaved independantly which is the
behaviour I wanted. 

Thx for any comments.

Don(C)
