import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Color;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.*;

import java.text.*;

public class drawWorld1 extends java.applet.Applet implements Serializable
{

String epicountry = "";
int epilon = 0 ;
int epilat = 0;


public void init()
{
epicountry = "USA";
epilat = 37;
epilon = -95;
}

public void paint (Graphics gc)
{

int del = -180;
String dels="";

//draw the big cross
gc.setColor(new Color(90,150,200));
gc.drawLine(20,420,820,420);
gc.drawLine(420,20,420,820);


//draw epicenter
if(epilon<0)
epilon = 420-(epilon*-2);
else if(epilon>0)
epilon = 420+epilon*2;
else if(epilon==0)
epilon = 420;

if(epilat<0)
epilat = 420-(epilat*-2);
else if(epilat>0)
epilat = 420+epilat*2;
else if(epilat==0)
epilat = 420;

gc.setColor(new Color(110,255,110));
gc.fillOval(epilon-60,epilat-60,120,120);
gc.setColor(new Color(255,110,25));
gc.fillOval(epilon-40,epilat-40,80,80);
gc.setColor(new Color(207,0,20));
gc.fillOval(epilon-20,epilat-20,40,40);
gc.setColor(Color.black);
gc.fillOval(epilon-2,epilat-2,4,4);
gc.drawString(epicountry,epilon+2,epilat);
}
}

Learn how to use the "Code" tags so the code you post retains its formatting.

I can't tell from the code whether you are attempting to create an AWT applet or a Swing applet.

Assuming it's Swing then custom painting is done by extending a JPanel and overriding the paintComponent(...) method. Then the panel is added to the content pane of JApplet.

Read the section from the Swing tutorial on Custom Painting.

What part of the tutorial did you not understand? It has a working example.

All those imports, yet you still use java.applet.Applet instead of importing it... why?

implements Serializable

why? You won't need it.

Your drawing disappears when you resize the window? See if it also happens using the appletviewer.

oh...bcos i copy paste the code here and there so there may have those redundant code in my program.Is a bit misleading,sorry ah!!

I tried to draw it in the JPanel and it can work.But there are more things had to add in, i hope will be alright too!!!Thanks a lots guys!!!
