i have a simple JavaFx browser that is launched through a JButton that it's placed into a JFrame. Now, i wanted to put the JavaFx broser into a separate thread that should run even if the JFrame is closed. Now, if i close the JFrame with that JButton, the JavaFx browser also closes. I've tried multiple combinations, done research over internet, but with no success. Hope you guys can help me with a little example. Thanks !
browser.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
if(e.getSource() == browser) {

// if it's not already started: - folosit pt a integra componente de tip FX Stage in componente swing (mai vechi) (JFrame)
JFXPanel fxPanel = new JFXPanel();
