[SOLVED] Disabling a button not working

[Leprechaun]

I have a button which I can't seem to disable.

Code:

JButton temp = (JButton)event.getSource();
temp.setText("WHY?");
temp.disable();

The text is set to "WHY?" but the button is not disabled, that's the part I find odd.

[sukatoa]

disable() method is deprecated as of JDK 1.1 and was replaced by
java.awt.Component.setEnabled(boolean)...

try to use temp.setEnabled( boolean b )....

That solved it, thanks for your help!
