Hi everyone,

This is happening because of the declaration of the class

You cannot implement ActionListener if you do not have this function in your class

You have to insert the above function in your applet class or not implement it at all
and have a alternative system for receiving listeners for your applet

I hoped this has helped you

Yours Sincerely

Richard West

THanks for your help but no matter where I move braces or that function I get errors. Can you tell me exactly where to put it and what is wrong with my braces?

I really appreciate it Kittie

This is an simple example on implementing the ActionListener interface.


By looking at your code, this method actionPerformed will be called whenever the controls fire an action. I'm not sure if this is what you want. What are you trying to do anyways?

Also, you have a method called public void JavaAirlines(). This is not the constructor and I don't see it being called anywhere in your code.

Hi everyone,

Try this kitty


I compiled it and it compiles without errors but you really need to clean up your'
code and try to go to Sun's site and learn about the different listeners they have. The tutorials over there are very good

Yours Sincerely

Richard West

Hi Thanks for all your help but now that I got it to compile, the applet does not initialize.

The program is supposed to be an Applet GUI with labels, radio buttons, etc for flight and food choices for passengers.

Thanks again, Kittie

I believe, the method public void JavaAirlines3() is not being called. This method is the one that puts all the radio buttons, etc. into your frame.

Call this method from your init() method.

Thanks NPH
I put JavaAirlines3(); at the end of the init() but it still says Applet not initialized.
I really appreciate your help, Kittie

How are you running the applet? Are you using the applet viewer or using IE? Try to use the applet viewer and it should give some error messages.

To use the applet viewer, go into the command prompt and go to the directory of your .html file and write


replace nameOfHtmlFile with the correct name. Post any errors here.
