Sure. You can use all the Swing or AWT classes in just the same way
you would if it were not an applet.

But beware that a bug in the Google toolbar will block this user-initiated
popup. For details see: http://segal.org/java/pop_window/

...and if you need to open a new
*browser* window, you might try ..

Applet.getAppletContext().showDocument(URL, "_blank")

[ Though Thomas' suggestion of dialog /
option pane / window / frame is more reliable.. ]

Have you tried popping up the second
window without actually setting the
frame visible?

just open a Frame without a parent.

I realized the original poster was probably referring to a Java component
Window, not a browser window. An example of this is at:
