Swing and Unix

We use a Unix terminal emulator like xterm at work to connect to our Unix machines from our PCs. I need to set up an interactive form that can display form elements (like toggle, radio, buttons, drop-down lists, etc). I thought it'd be a simple thing to use Java's Swing classes to help with this, but when I try to create a JFrame from Unix, it disrupts all open xterminals (temporarily removing borders, menus, title bars, etc). Has anyone had a similar problem? And if so, how did you fix it? What other solutions might I consider? Unfortunately, I haven't discovered a native UNIX utility installed on our machines that can handle cursor placement in the terminal window.
