JApplet Problem

[tanmoy.b81]

hello everybody,

I am new to this forum as well as in AWT/Swing. I am facing a problem and do not know how to solve this problem.

My code :

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
 
public class NewClass extends JApplet{
 
public void init() {
JButton jb = new JButton("Send");
jb.setVisible(true);
getContentPane().add(jb);
}
public void paint(Graphics g) {
g.drawString("Hello",10,10);
}
}

Now my problem is first time the button is not visible, when I am moving the mouse pointer on that area then the button is being visible.

Why it is happening like this?

Please help me out..........

Thanks in advance...........................

//  <applet code="NewClassApplet" width="400" height="400"></applet>
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
 
public class NewClassApplet extends JApplet {

    public void init() {
        JButton jb = new JButton("Send");
        // This is useless here.
        //jb.setVisible(true);
        JPanel panel = new JPanel();
        panel.add(jb);
        getContentPane().add(panel);
        // An alternate approach:
        //getContentPane().add(panel, "Last");        
    }

    public void paint(Graphics g) {
        // One of the few times you need to call
        // "super" in a paint method is if
        // the container has light-weight children.
        // This method will draw on top of children.
        super.paint(g);
        g.drawString("Hello",10,10);
    }
}
