Java code:

package Samurai;
import java.util.Scanner;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JFrame;

import java.awt.Component;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Samurai {

/**
* @param args
*/
public static JFrame frame= new JFrame ("Samurai Game By Dharav");
public static void main(String[] args) {


frame.setVisible(true);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOS E);
frame.setSize(300,300);
JPanel pane1=new JPanel();
Component panel;
frame.add(panel);
JButton button=new JButton("Start");
JButton button2=new JButton("Quit");
JButton button3=new JButton("Instructions");
panel.add(button);
panel.add(button2);
panel.add(button3);
button.addActionListener(new Action());
button2.addActionListener(new Action2());
button3.addActionListener(new Action3());
}

static class Action3 implements ActionListener{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
frame.setVisible(false);

System.out.println("Follow the instructions on screen.\n When asked for a answer please use Y for yes or N for no. \n Also to explore Press Enter.")

}
}
static class Action2 implements ActionListener{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
frame.setVisible(false);
System.exit(0);
}

That's a héll of a lot of code and no error messages posted that I can see.

I recommend that you limit the amount of code so that it's a reasonable amount to ask a volunteer to review, preferably an SSCCE (check the link). Also post any error messages you have and indicate which lines are causing the errors.

And please contribute to the thread rather than just dumping the code and disappearing. In your earlier thread (http://www.java-forums.org/new-java/...nts-error.html) those who replied got no feedback.

It's a good idea to work one small step at a time so that errors do not build up. And have a small, reasonable goal in mind. That way you can explain what you are trying to do and everyone can address some particular problem. Some explanation of a problem really is necessary. Do your best: people will ask if they don't understand.
