Java newb: Couple of questions need answering :)

[wpearsall]

Hi,

OK, i am a total newbie to Java Programming.. i downloaded tons of source code, looked thru the code and am starting to take some of the stuff in.

I have made a chat system in VB, but now, want to create a java applet for people who dont want to download the full application [IE: People who are at school / college / work etc]

Now,

As i said, i have downloaded tons of source and started to understand some of the basic stuff...

The stuff i really need to know to help me get on my way is:

1) Is there a site which list's all of the Events of a Socket?
---- I need to be able to listen for a data arrival on the socket etc

// Like with listening for a click of a command button
bSend.addActionListener( new SendButton() );
// it would be nice to know how to listen for data arriving
wskSocket.add_DataIncoming_Listener( new DataArrival() );

2) How do i loop through forms [AKA Frames?] to check for the title of the form?

Dim frm as form, _
      dForm as frmPMForm
for each frm in forms
if frm.caption="Search caption" then
  set dform=frm
  exit for
end if
next frm
if dform is nothing then exit sub
dform.??????(???)

3) I think i am knowing how to create the forms from a basic class.

4) I tried to compile my applet to see if my user interface is working, but get the following messages:

[ EDIT: i fixed this one, i forgot to add a reference / import import java.awt.event.*; ]

                                     ^
C:\Programming\TheWalks\TheWalksChat\Webbased\JavaClient\JavaInterface.java:84: cannot resolve symbol
symbol  : variable KeyEvent 
location: class JavaClient.JavaInterface
		hlpMenu.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_H);
                                    ^
C:\Programming\TheWalks\TheWalksChat\Webbased\JavaClient\JavaInterface.java:93: cannot resolve symbol
symbol  : method setJMenuBar (javax.swing.JMenuBar)
location: class JavaClient.JavaInterface
		setJMenuBar( menuBar );
                ^

can anyone help explain these?...

Also, a biggy:

5) How do i make it so i can change a variable from a <param> tag on the webpage applet code?

IE: String sRoom in the code is set by the param... ?

Thanks guys.
