RE: frame question

[Marshall Dunbar <marshall@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Your applet class, cannot contain a frame, but you can create another 
class that inherits from java.awt.Frame and use that in your applet 
class.  The applet class would do a

        FrameClass a=new FrameClass();
        a.show();

If you want the Frame window to pop up immediately when the user 
navigates to your applet page, put the above code in the applet's 
start() method.  You should also put an a.dispose() in the applet's 
stop() method, otherwise the Frame window will hang around even if the 
user navigates away from your applet page!
