Oops, you can't do this in AWT. It's valid for Swing only.

i import swing package...Any way so how can i set image..

[Eranga]

Just importing the package not solve your question. Use a JLable instead a Label.

Hello Sir

So how can i get it sir

[Eranga]

Here is a simple example. You have to use AWT and Swing component in correct way.

Code:

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

/**
 *
 * @author Eranga Tennakoon
 */
public class BackImage extends JFrame{

    public BackImage() {
        JPanel framePanel = new JPanel();
        setContentPane(framePanel);
        getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
        ImageIcon imageBack = new ImageIcon("images/master03_background.gif");
        JLabel background = new JLabel(imageBack);
        background.setBounds(0, 0, imageBack.getIconWidth(), imageBack.getIconHeight());
	getLayeredPane().add(background, new Integer(Integer.MIN_VALUE));
        framePanel.setOpaque(false);
        setContentPane(framePanel); 
    }

    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        BackImage main = new BackImage();
        main.setSize(100, 100);
        main.setVisible(true);
    }

}

        JLabel background = new JLabel(imageBack);
        background.setBounds(0, 0, imageBack.getIconWidth(), imageBack.getIconHeight());
	getLayeredPane().add(background, new Integer(Integer.MIN_VALUE));
        framePanel.setOpaque(false);
        setContentPane(framePanel); 
    }

    
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        main.setSize(100, 100);
        main.setVisible(true);
    }

}

Thxs sir

Image is showing but not in poroper way.It is showing like a 3rd. here is code

	private Label  label3;
	private Label  label4;
	private Label  label5;
	
	public AboutDlg(Frame parent)

	//	super(parent,"About", false);
		JPanel framePanel = new JPanel();
        setContentPane(framePanel);
        getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
        ImageIcon imageBack = new ImageIcon("C:\\WINDOWS\\Web\\hand2.gif");
        JLabel background = new JLabel(imageBack);
      
        background.setBounds(0,0, imageBack.getIconWidth(), imageBack.getIconHeight());
        
        getLayeredPane().add(background, new Integer(Integer.MAX_VALUE));
        framePanel.setOpaque(false);
        setContentPane(framePanel);
		setLayout(new BorderLayout(15,15));
		setResizable(false);

		Font f;
		
		label1 = new Label("",Label.CENTER);
		label2 = new JLabel("",JLabel.CENTER);
		label3 = new Label("",Label.CENTER);
		label4 = new Label("",Label.CENTER);
		label5 = new Label("",Label.CENTER);

		 
		    
		Panel lab = new Panel();
		lab.setLayout(new GridLayout(5,3));
		lab.add(label1);
		lab.add(label2);
		add("Center", lab);

		button = new Button("OK");
		Panel p = new Panel();
		p.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER,15, 15));
		p.add(button);
		add("South", p);
		

		//f = new Font("Terminal", Font.BOLD, 15);
		//label1.setFont(f);
		
		//label1.setText("HTTP Proxy Server, Version 1.0");
		//f = new Font("Terminal", Font.PLAIN, 13);
	
		
	

		pack();
		
		Point fatherLocation = parent.location();
		move(fatherLocation.x + 150,fatherLocation.y + 200);
		show();
	}

	public boolean action (Event evt, Object arg)
	{
		if (evt.target instanceof Button)
		{
			hide();
			dispose();
			return true;
		}
		return false;
	}
	
	




	public boolean handleEvent (Event event) 
	{
		switch (event.id) {
		case Event.WINDOW_DESTROY:
			dispose();
			return true;
		default:
			return super.handleEvent(event);
		}
	}




}

Again you workout in wrong way with components. Reason is that you use three panels to add all those components. Do it using a one.

Panel is a container, holds components, in simple word. What you have done in your code is, one panel in the whole are, one in the center and the other is in south. So you can only see part of the larger panel, whole panel on the frame.

Hope it's clear.

        ImageIcon imageBack = new ImageIcon("C:\\WINDOWS\\Web\\exclam.gif");
        JLabel background = new JLabel(imageBack);
        background.setBounds(0,0, imageBack.getIconWidth(), imageBack.getIconHeight());
        getLayeredPane().add(background, new Integer(Integer.MAX_VALUE));
        framePanel.setOpaque(false);
        setContentPane(framePanel);

You have to think about layouts now. GridLayout and so on.

i use

Code:

		getContentPane().setLayout(new FlowLayout.CENTER,15,150);
		getContentPane().setLayout(new GridLayout(5,3));
		 getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout(15,15));

And now tell me what i change here

[Eranga]

Use the GridLayout and add components in proper places. If you don't want to add anything, add an empty label. Set the transparent of the label too. If not you can't see the background image.
