Will your JBuilder5 compile a simple applet like this:

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;

public class Applet1 extends JApplet {
  public void init() {
    getContentPane().add(new JLabel("Applet!"));
  }
}

Also, have you tried compiling outside of JBuilder5 using the javac command on the commandline? Have you successfully compiled and run anything using JBuilder5?

No same Error

Y'know, it could be the case that JBuilder, for whatever reason, is not aware that it has an applet and instead is trying to execute it. Executing applets is usually not appropriate (sometimes it is, if you write the class to be a dual applet/application). I've not used JBuilder, but there's probably some compiler option that needs to be checked to tell JBuilder to handle your class as an applet at runtime.

JCreator!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
www.jcreator.com
There is a free version available. It has no GUI creater but real men/women write gui's with notepad!

[honeybee]

There's also Forte from sun microsystems and NetBeans from I think www.netbeans.org.

Ok i have been messing with his in Jbuilder5 for 2 days and its not working at all im getting this error

Check your project properties in the tab RUN. You'll see settings for application & applet. That should fix your problem in JBuilder.
