Trouble forwarding event( s)

Question

Hello,
I'm having some problem with forwarding the ActionEvent to calling class...
For example consider following Pad class
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Pad extends Panel implements ActionListener
     private Button btn1 = new Button(" 1 ");
     private Button btn2 = new Button(" 2 ");
     public Pad()
          add(btn1);add(btn2);
          btn1.addActionListener(this);
          btn2.addActionListener(this);
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent v)
          Object parent = getParent();
          if(parent instanceof ActionListener)
          ((ActionListener)parent).actionPerformed(v);
}Now the following PadUser class works correctly...
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class PadUser extends Applet implements ActionListener
     private Pad mypad = new Pad();
     public PadUser()
          add(mypad);
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
          System.out.println("User pressed :"+ e.getActionCommand());
BUT if I made the following changes in the PadUser class then it fails...
public PadUser()
   Panel p = new Panel();
   p.add(mypad);
   add(p);
}Any thoughts....
