Handling 2 DropDown Menus in same class...??

Question

Hi,
As you can imagine I am new to this....and I'm having trouble creating 2 DropDown Menus in the same class...
The problem is the "public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e) "...the compiler doesn't let me have 2 of them...I can understand why since it needs to make the difference between the 2 DropDown Menus...but how do I do it? I've tryed "public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent f) " but java doesn't like it either...
Here is my code (note that without the second DropDown "ChoicePeople" it works just fine):
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Booking extends Applet implements ItemListener
String[][] c = { {"French Language","250","130","70"}, {"Painting","270","140","70"},
{"Yoga","250","130","70"} };
Courses courses_list = new Courses(c);
Choice ChoiceCourse;
public void init()
  add(new Label("Courses available for booking : "));
  ChoiceCourse = new Choice();
  add(ChoiceCourse);
  int i=0;
  while (i<c.length)
    ChoiceCourse.addItem(courses_list.getTitle(i));
    i++;
  ChoiceCourse.addItemListener(this);
public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e)
  String c1 = (String) e.getItem();
  add(new Label("Number of participants for the course selected : "));
  ChoicePeople = new Choice();
  add(ChoicePeople);
  int j=0;
  while (j<11)
    ChoicePeople.addItem(j);
    i++;
  ChoicePeople.addItemListener(this);
public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e)
  int p1 = (int) e.getItem();
}

I can't view my Applet via the AppletViewer anymore....
My classes compile just fine but when I try to view the applet I get stuck on "Applet Loaded" and even if I try to start it nothing happens...
It worked fine until I added the second DropDown Menu (ChoicePeople) and the if statements in the itemStateChanged as you'll see in my code below...I guess I've done something wrong there...but What?
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Booking extends Applet implements ItemListener
String[][] c = { {"French Language","250","130","70"}, {"Painting","270","140","70"}, {"Yoga","250","130","70"} };
Courses courses_list = new Courses(c);
Choice ChoiceCourse;
Choice ChoicePeople;
public void init()
  add(new Label("Courses available for booking : "));
  ChoiceCourse = new Choice();
  add(ChoiceCourse);
//the following populates the ChoiceCourse dropDown Menu with the Courses'Titles
  int i=0;
  while (i<c.length)
    ChoiceCourse.addItem(courses_list.getTitle(i));
    i++;
  ChoiceCourse.addItemListener(this);
  add(new Label("Number of participants for the course selected : "));
  ChoicePeople = new Choice();
  add(ChoicePeople);
//the following populates the ChoicePeople dropDown Menu with "numbers" from 1 to 10
  int j=1;
  while (j<11)
    ChoicePeople.addItem("j");
    i++;
  ChoicePeople.addItemListener(this);
public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e)
  if (e.getSource() == ChoiceCourse)
    String c1 = (String) e.getItem();  // When ChoiceCourse is modified
  if (e.getSource() == ChoicePeople)
    String p2 = (String) e.getItem();  // When ChoicePeople is modified
    int p1=Integer.parseInt(p2);       // converts the String into an integer
}
