Thank You very Much.... You have cleared all my doubts.
But my main objective is to display an image in an AWT Frame !!
here is the code that i have been trying..
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class check6 extends Panel
     Frame f;
     Image i;
     public check6()
          f = new Frame("Heading");
          f.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
               public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e){
                    System.exit(0);
          final Button b1 = new Button("Submit");
          b1.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
               public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
                    repaint();
          i = getImage(getCodeBase(), "titanic.jpg");
          add(b1);
          setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
          f.add(this);
          f.setSize(500,500);
          f.setVisible(true);
     public void paint(Graphics g)
          g.drawImage(i,10,10,this);
     public static void main(String args[])
          new check6();
}
