Sizing an Applet, Need help.

The height parameter of the applet tag can be entered either in terms of number of pixels or % of the browser height.
Is there a way to specify the height as the maximum of two: a fixed size, say, 500 pixels, and a fixed percent, say, 70%, of the browser height? If a Javascript is necessary, could someone help me out with that?
Thanks in advance,
Sooby Bhattacharjee, SDSU

It is possible to use a % height in the html document and resize() the applet (within the applet) to 500 pixels in height if smaller.

Scrolling applet - need help

I have an applet that contains too much information to fit on the screen, so I need a scrollbar so I can view the rest. The kind of scrollbar that's on the side of a web browser that lets you scroll down to view the rest of the page. It's a class that extends Applet and implements MouseListener and ActionListener. I've looked around the internet for the solution for an hour and found nothing. Any help would be much appreciated

Put a JScrollpane your ScrollPane as the main Panel of your applet, then put the content of your applet in a JPanel yourPanel and finaly call yourScrollPane.setViewPortView(yourPanel).
Try that. It should work.

Basic Math Applet - Need Help

Hi all,
I made program work fine as an application, but I cannot get it to work as an applet. I'm trying to write an applet that asks the user to enter two floating-point numbers, obtain the two numbers from the user and draws the sum, product, difference, and quotient of the two numbers.I appreicate any help. My main errors are in the calculations og *,/,-,+ .... I do not know how to fix this though I suspect it simple. Thanks for any help.
import java.awt.Graphics;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Math extends JApplet {
     double sum, product, difference, quotient;
     public void init ()
          String firstNumber,
          secondNumber;
          Double number1,number2;
     firstNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog ("Enter first floating pt value" );
     secondNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog ("Enter second floating pt value");
     number1 = Double.parseDouble( firstNumber );
     number2 = Double.parseDouble( secondNumber );
     sum = number1 + number2;
     product = number1 * number2;
     difference = number1 - number2;
     quotient = number1 / number2;
     public void paint( Graphics g )
     g.drawRect(15, 10, 270, 20);
     g.drawString("The sum is: " + sum + "\n" +
     "The difference is: " + difference + "\n" + "The qoutient is: "
     + quotient + "\n" + "The product is: " + product, 25,25);
     System.exit (0);
}

Arrgg.... When I use this code in HTML it doesn't drop lines.
     public void paint( Graphics g )
     g.drawRect(15, 10, 270, 20);
     g.drawString("The sum is: " + sum + "\n" +
     "The difference is: " + difference + "\n" + "The qoutient is: "
     + quotient + "\n" + "The product is: " + product, 25,25);
Why are the "\n" not working? Any thoughts?

Right now I have 12 dozens of files named "quotes. txt quotes-1.txt etc ... quotes-n.txt"
correspondind to n clicks on the button. Unmanageable.
Just want to get the following in my JTextField named "box":
AF.PA;36,39;4/5/2007;17h35;+1,25;35,53;36,62;35,52;2547827
LVMH.PA;84,28;4/3/2007;17h38;+1,16;83,80;84,58;83,32;1963844
1 - If I succeed I will read the content of the JTextField - line by line - do a split(";")
on each line to get a vector of data and finnally connect with connector/J to
add records to a mySQL database.
2 - If I succeed for step 1, I will create a Thread calling the stuff every 20 mn.
This is my final objective.
All the working and not working stuff is at http://www.edelphy.com/ShowDocumentOK/ShowDocument.html
Please help,
TIA

Display image in applet - need help

Ive got this code in my applet
Image image1 = toolkit.getImage("images/background.jpg");
Which runs fine when run locally, but when I try to run it from a html in a browser it starts to fire off lots of security messages.
How can i do this?
the remainder is I set it as my background
g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, this);

I have tried the following while running the applet in a browser and it worked...so I guess you can give this a try...
java.net.URL backgroundImage = getClass().getResource("back.jpg");
ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(backgroundImage);
and then use this ImageIcon to set the background.

Need help with advanced applet

I need help with designing an applet as follows. Can someone give me a basic layout of code and material so i can fill in the rest or at leats give me some hints so i can get started since i am like no good at applets.
Design and implement an applet that graphically displays the processing
of a selection sort. Use bars of various heights to represent
the values being sorted. Display the set of bars after each swap. Put
a delay in the processing of the sort to give the human observer a
chance to see how the order of the values changes.
heres a website that does something similar

I need help in establishing a smale applet

Pleaze i need help in creating this small program. any one can help me pleaze.
All what is required is to write a java applet, that does the following:
1) Creates an empty file on the client side. The name of the file is given
by the client user.
2) Reads a file (example: c:\tmp\toto.txt) from the client side. The name
of the file is given by the client user. If the file does not exist, the
applet should display a message error �File does not exist�.
pleaze help me in thaaaaaat :(

Applets cannot access client files by default: In order to do either of these you will need to sign your applet. Google for applet signing and see what you find.

A Menu Applet Project (need help)

The Dinner Menu Applet
I would need help with those codes ...
I have to write a Java applet that allows the user to make certain choices from a number of options and allows the user to pick three dinner menu items from a choice of three different groups, choosing only one item from each group. The total will change as each selection is made.
Please send help at [email protected] (see the codes of the project at the end of that file... Have a look and help me!
INSTRUCTIONS
Design the menu program to include three soups, three
entrees, and three desserts. The user should be informed to
choose only one item from each group.
Use the following information to create your project.
Clam Chowder 2.79
Vegetable soup 2.99
Peppered Chicken Broth 2.49
Chicken 12.79
Fish 10.99
Beef 14.99
Vanilla Ice Cream 2.79
Rice Pudding 2.99
Cheesecake 4.29
The user shouldn�t be able to choose more than one item
from the same group. The item prices shouldn�t be visible to
the user.
When the user makes his or her first choice, the running
total at the bottom of the applet should show the price of
that item. As each additional item is selected, the running
total should change to reflect the new total cost.
The dinner menu should be 200 pixels wide &#56256;&#56437; 440 pixels
high and be centered on the browser screen. The browser
window should be titled �The Menu Program.�
Use 28-point, regular face Arial for the title �Dinner Menu.�
Use 16-point, bold face Arial for the dinner menu group titles
and the total at the bottom of the applet. Use 14-point regular
face Arial for individual menu items and their prices. If you
do not have Arial, you may substitute any other sans-serif
font in its place. Use Labels for the instructions.
The checkbox objects will use the system default font.
Note: Due to complexities in the way that Java handles
numbers and rounding, your price may display more than
two digits after the decimal point. Since most users are used
to seeing prices displayed in dollars and cents, you�ll need to
display the correct value.
For this project, treat the item prices as integers. For example,
enter the price of cheesecake as 429 instead of 4.29. That
way, you�ll get an integer number as a result of the addition.
Then, you�ll need to establish two new variables in place of
the Total variable. Run the program using integers for the
prices, instead of float variables with decimals.
You�ll have the program perform two mathematical functions
to get the value for the dollars and cents variables. First,
divide the total price variable by 100. This will return a
whole value, without the remainder. Then get the mod of the
number versus 100, and assign this to the cents variable.
Finally, to display the results, write the following code:
System.out.println("Dinner Price is $ " + dollars +"." + cents);
Please send code in notepad or wordpad to [email protected]
Here are the expectations:
HTML properly coded
Java source and properly compiled class file included
Screen layout as specified
All menu items properly coded
Total calculates correctly

           else
               cb3Desserts.setState(true);
            repaint();
    }

The specific problem is that when I load he applet, the radio buttons do not work properly and any calculation is made.OK.
I had a look at the soup radio buttons. I guess the others are similar.
(a) First, a typo.
cb1Soups.addItemListener(this);cb2Soups.addItemListener(this);cb2Soups.addItemListener(this);That last one should be "cb3Soups.addItemListener(this)". The peppered chicken broth was never responding to a click. It might be a good idea to write methods that remove such duplicated code.
(b) Now down where you respond to user click you have:
Checkbox soupsSelection=soupsG.getSelectedCheckbox();
if(soupsSelection==cb1Soups)
    dollars +=clamChowderPrice;
if(soupsSelection==cb2Soups)
    dollars +=vegetableSoupPrice;
else
    cb3Soups.setState(true);What is that last bit all about? And why aren't they charged for the broth? Perhaps it should be:
Checkbox soupsSelection=soupsG.getSelectedCheckbox();
if(soupsSelection==cb1Soups) {
    dollars +=clamChowderPrice;
} else if(soupsSelection==cb2Soups) {
    dollars +=vegetableSoupPrice;
} else if(soupsSelection==cb3Soups) {
    dollars +=pepperedChickenBrothPrice;
}Now dollars (the meal price in cents) will have the price of the soup added to it every time.
(c) It's not enough to just calculate dollars, you also have to display it to the user. Up near the start of your code you have
Label theDinnerPriceIs=new Label("Dinner Price is $ "+dollars +"."+cents);It's important to realise that theDinnerPriceIs will not automatically update itself to reflect changes in the dollars and cents variables. You have to do this yourself. One way would be to use the Label setText() method at the end of the itemStateChanged() method.
(d) Finally, the way you have written itemStateChanged() you are continually adding things to dollars. Don't forget to make dollars zero at the start of this method otherwise the price will go on and on accumulating which is not what you intend.
A general point: If you have any say in it use Swing (JApplet) rather than AWT. And remember that both Swing and AWT have forums of their own which may be where you get the best help for layout problems.

Partial Get via IE Browser/applet failing ... need help !?

Partial Get via IE Browser/applet failing ... need help !?
I recall someone saying that IE client would not receive a partial get initiated by http URL with setRequestProperty("range","bytes=2-");
Can anyone elaborate on why the client seems to balk at the returned result and the getinputStream seems to result in a FileNotFoundException
Do I have to use sockets ??????

Hi,
well i am not able to get any value from connection.getOutputStream() and i doubt my applet is not able to hit the servlet. could you review my code and tell me if it has some bug somewhere. and more over i want to know how to send multiple file data from applet to servlet . i want some sample or example if possible.
do share if you have any experience of this sort..
Thanks.

Need Help! Applet Servlet Portlet Communication

Hi
My applet need to send a keyWord to let a portlet to do some operations. I know an applet can communicate with a servlet by URLConnection.But how can portlet? Can I consider a portlet as a servlet and let the applet communicate with the portlet like servlet by URLConnection? could you tell me whether this is possible?
Thanks for your help.

Hi
You have a white-space in the codebase, remove it.
If that doesn't help, make a static html page, test the Applet with it.

Need help with Applet: Images

DUKESTARS HERE, YOU KNOW YOU WANNA
Hi,
I'm designing an applet for some extra credit and I need help.
This game that i have designed is called "Digit Place Game", but there is no need for me to explain the rules.
The problem is with images.
When I start the game using 'appletviewer', it goes to the main menu:
http://img243.imageshack.us/img243/946/menuhy0.png
Which is all good.
But I decided that when you hover your cursor over one of the options such as: Two-Digits or Three-Digits, that the words that are hovered on turn green.
http://img131.imageshack.us/img131/6231/select1ch3.png
So i use the mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) from awt.event;
The problem is that when i move the mouse around the applet has thick line blotches of gray/silver demonstrated below (note: these are not exact because my print screen doesn't take a picture of the blotches)
http://img395.imageshack.us/img395/4974/annoyingmt1.png
It also lags a little bit.
I have 4 images in my image folder that's in the folder of the source code
The first one has all text blue. The second one has the first option, Two-Digits green but rest blue. The third one has the second option, Three-Digits green but rest blue, etc.
this is my code

Oh yes, I knew there could be some problem.......
Now try this:
boolean a,b,c;
if((a=(x >= 175 && x <= 330 && y >= 200 && y <= 235)) && !hoverButton[0]) {
               hoverButton[0] = true;
               repaint();
          } else if((b=(x >= 175 && x <= 330 && y >= 250 && y <= 280)) && !hoverButton[1]) {
               hoverButton[1] = true;
               repaint();
          } else if((c=(x >= 175 && x <= 330 && y >= 305 && y <= 335)) && !hoverButton[2]) {
               hoverButton[2] = true;
               repaint();
          } else if ((!a && !b && !c)&&(hoverButton[0] || hoverButton[1] || hoverButton[2]){
                    for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
                         hoverButton[i] = false;

Need help to develop Pythagoras theorem-

Hi i need help to develop proofs 2,3,4
of pythagoras theorems in java as demonstrations
These are applets can anyone help me with it or give me an idea of how to go about developing it -
the site is the following
http://www.uni-koeln.de/ew-fak/Mathe/Projekte/VisuPro/pythagoras/pythagoras.html
then double click on the screen to make it start

Pardon my ASCII art, but I've always liked the following, simple, geometric proof:
     a                   b
---------------------------------------+
|       |                                |
a|   I   |              II                |
|       |                                |
---------------------------------------+
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
b| IV   |              III               |
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
|       |                                |
---------------------------------------+It almost goes without saying that I+II+III+IV == (a+b)^2, and II == IV == a*b,
I == a*a and III == b*b, showing that (a+b)^2 == a^2+a*b+a*b+b^2.
I hope the following sketch makes sense, stand back, ASCII art alert again:     a                   b
---------------------------------------+
|               .             VI         |
|     .                 .                |a
| V                               .      |
|                                        +
|                                        |
|   .                                    |
b|                                     . |
|                                        |
|                  IX                    |
| .                                      |
|                                    .   |b
|                                        |
+                                        |
|      .                                 |
a|               .                  . VII |
| VIII                   .              |
---------------------------------------+
                 a                    bThe total area equals (a+b)^2 again and equals the sum of the smaller areas:
(a+b)^2 == V+VI+VII+VIII+IX. Let area IX be c^2 for whatever c may be.
V+VII == VI+VIII == a*b, so a^2+b^2+2*ab= c^2+2*a*b; IOW a^2+b^2 == c^2
Given this fundamental result, the others can easily be derived from this one,
or did I answer a question you didn't ask?
kind regards,
Jos
