Applet sizing problem

[Peter Phung]

hi everyone,
I've written an applet but it is appearing larger than the display area. I havn't written any code which sizes the applet. can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong?
My code :

 
public class SArequest extends JApplet {
    JButton b_submit, b_reset;
    JTextField f_title, f_history, f_name, f_phone, f_email, f_deadline, f_cRef;
    JTextArea a_objective, a_support, a_drawingRef;
    JScrollPane scroll_objective, scroll_support, scroll_drawingRef;
    JComboBox c_customer, c_project, c_location;
    JLabel l_title, l_cRef, l_customer, l_history, l_project, l_dRef, l_dRef_refer, l_originator, l_name, l_location, l_phone, l_email, l_deadline, l_objective, l_support, l_support_refer, l_DATE, l_SAREF;
    JLabel SAREF;
    Date DATE;

    String log_dateStr;
    GridBagLayout layout = new GridBagLayout();

    Color maroon = new Color(102,0,0);
    public void init() {
b_submit = new JButton("Submit");
b_reset = new JButton("Reset");
f_title = new JTextField(50);

This is the only code i have, no other parts of the GUI have been written.

I suggest you make your lines of code shorter than 120 characters per line.

You have height and width parameters in your html page that calls the applet, right?

applet code=xxx height=xxx width=xxx
