Re: calling a function very basic >>> <<<<
 

new GridDrawingApplet();

you don't need to explicitly call paint

Re: calling a function very basic >>> <<<<
 

so how can i display the content of paint.. wat i am expecting here is to display the content of paint, from the main program.. how can i do that ??

sorry i assumed you knew where to place it

public static void main(String []args)

{

   new GridDrawingApplet();

}

Re: calling a function very basic >>> <<<<
 

an applet do not require main method
to run your code include the following method
public void init()
{
}
and one comment
//<applet code=GridDrawingApplet height=300 width=300></applet>

and run this code after compiling by writing
appletviewer GridDrawingApplet

and remove main method......
