Code:
public class Applet1 extends Applet
{
	public String i_item;
	
	
	/**
	 * The entry point for the applet. 
	 */
	public void init()
	{
		
		xitem = new Class1(i_item);
        	
	}
           
         public void paint(Graphics g) {

 }
}

Ok, i want to be able to call the xitem in the paint sub. Sorry this is a basic question but this is my 3rd day doing this hehe

Anyways, i want to make it so i can do

Code:
public void paint(Graphics g) {

 xitem.Draw();

{
But the thing is, when i put in xitem. the submenu wont pop up. It should have Draw inside because my Class1 has it. This is what it looks like.

Code:
import java.awt.*;

public class Class1
{
	String x_item;
	public Class1(String x){
	
	x_item = x;
		
		
	
	}

	public void DrawX(Graphics d){
				d.drawString(x_item,20,20);	 

		  
	}
}
I know there are many errors, but what am i forgeting to make xitem equal to... i tried making it
public xitem Class1;
before the init void but that dosent work.

??? Please help, im stuck damnit! :\
