Mario,

Make the applet's initial update Parameter as "false" and can also make the width and height of that applet to 1 or 0.

Hope this helps...

Since drop down iBrowsers don't consume much screen space, perhaps you could just use InitialUpdate=false on the second one. You can set this in either the display template, or in the html with:

<PARAM NAME="InitialUpdate" VALUE="false">

Mario,

have a look at the following thread:

Jeremy proposes to use iframes, which might help you with your request.
