How do I make JPanel focusable in applet?

Question

Consider the following Applet: /*  <applet code="MyTest8" width="500" height="300"></applet>  */
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MyTest8 extends JApplet
     public void init()
          Container contentPane = getContentPane();
          contentPane.add(new MyTest8Panel());
class MyTest8Panel extends JPanel implements KeyListener
     String s;
     public MyTest8Panel()
          s="-";
          addKeyListener(this);
     public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
          super.paintComponent(g);
          g.drawString(s, 100, 100);
     public boolean isFocusable() { return true; }
     public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) { s = s+"-"; repaint(); }
     public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) { }
     public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) { }
} It should add a dash to the screen everytime I hit a key. It doesn't work. It appears the panel never gets focus. What am I doing wrong?
