Hi all, my first post here :) I'm new to java so please bare with me.

I'm writing a very simple applet to get my skills going in Java. Practically my applet fetches an image from an external URL (using java.net.URL) and paints it in my applet. So far so good. Now I want to enhance my applet so that the image gets painted progressively as it is buffered from the URL (like in Firefox in a top-down style rendering) i.e. the user won't have to wait till all the image is fetched till it is rendered. I have been looking a means a way to get this going, but I have failed miserably. I look forward for any guidance and highly appreciate your help. Thanks
