Why do I see two security dialogues when using JavaFX content on Mac OS X for the first time?
Security dialogues are presented when accessing signed content that is not trusted by your system. This policy is designed to protect you by letting you decide whether you feel comfortable running content that could potentially compromise the security of your system. Content signed by an authority that is trusted by the system will run seamlessly without displaying a dialogue. When first running JavaFX 1.1 (or earlier) content on Mac OS X, users were presented with a security dialogue requesting permission to allow the JavaFX runtime to run. If the applications were signed, this would have resulted in two security dialogues requests. With JavaFX 1.2 and beyond, users see a friendly looking splash screen that requests permission to trust the JavaFX runtime certificate the very first time they run JavaFX content. This ensures that subsequent access to JavaFX content will be free of security dialogues unless of course the content has been signed by an untrusted authority.
