Displaying an Image!
Hi,
Im very new to java . So please bear with me.
I have faced the following problem with the given code:
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.Image;
import java.net.URL;
public class PaintBanner extends Applet{
Image testImage;
public void init(){
testImage = getImage("http://www.webdeveloper.com/animations/bnifiles/alladdin.gif");
}
public void paint(Graphics g){
g.drawImage(testImage,100,100,this);
}
}
I tried compiling it with javac PaintBanner.java
It is giving the following error:
PaintBanner.java:9: cannot find symbol
symbol : method getImage(java.lang.String)
location: class PaintBanner
testImage = getImage("http://www.webdeveloper.com/animations/bnifiles/alladdin.gif");
^
1 error
and Ive created a corresponding html file:
<html>
<body>
<applet code="PaintBanner.class" width=100 height=100>
</applet>
</body>
</html>
and Im not getting it how to display the image.. Ive been trying with appletviewer PaintBanner.html..
Can anyone please help me?

Re: Displaying an Image!
It doesn't get much clearer than that. What made you think there's a getImage(...) method that takes a single String argument?cannot find symbol
symbol : method getImage(java.lang.String)

Re: Displaying an Image!
Its given in the java book... There was another option:
getImage(getDocumentBase(),"alladin.gif");
Now , eventhough this doesnt give an error while compilation,, while running the applet viewer it is giving a blank page.

Re: Displaying an Image!
Burn the book and get one that has some quality. Or use The Java™ Tutorials online. You can find what you immediately need in the section on How to Make Applets (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing > Using Swing Components)

By the way, I hope you didn't waste money on that crappy book -- it's online for free. I won't post a link because I don't intend to inadvertently promote it, but did you know it dates to 1997? That's older than some of the kids who are already learning Java today.Why do they call it rush hour when nothing moves? - Robin Williams
