I still can't get that Applet to work the way I want.

What the Fuck!

It just hates me. That's what it is. It only likes Omnivore.

I thought it just didn't like VJ++, so I got this IDE:

http://www.jcreator.com/download.htm

The free version ain't bad. I can compile the applet, and get
it to run. I added a new class using Panels, like Ominvore said.

And I wrote me a focus listener, like Omnivore said. It
even worked, like Omnivore said it would. Yeah, that
was all just keen, yes Sir.

But the Panel doesn't solve the problem until I can put
some text in there. So I added a Label. Once the Label's
in there, the focus listener doesn't work anymore. WTF?

So I added a focus listener to the label, too. But that
doesn't WORK. So I found "setFocusEnbaled" function, and
I called that for the Label, too, BUT IT STILL DON'T WORK.

AAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

I can't even think now, because B-17's keep flying over
my house. Stay off I-94, no matter what you do.

Arrgh! I hate microsquash. Fucking VJ++

Bill's an asshole. Omnivore should kill him now.

OK I'm back. apparently the entire news feed was down, but I'm the only
person that uses it and I thought it was my fault. Next time I complain
early and often.

Well, I know you've moved on, but I'm still curious about what happened.
I checked the Java "AWT Focus Policy" notes and found this:

"A request to focus a non-focus traversable (i.e., non-focusable)
Component will be denied. Previously, such requests were granted."

since a label can't be changed by a user it may not generate a focus
event. Other than that I have no clue.

Well, that would explain it. If so, I think they should have
depreciated the Label's call to "setFocusEnbaled".

Or something.
