First you must understand what CODEBASE is. CODEBASE is the directory (forget I said that ); is the PLACE where an applet is loaded from, into a Web page. That should answer the question.
An Applet, which is a Panel, is a Container which is a Component. The method <CODE>update()</CODE> is defined in Component. That should answer the question. Hint: objects can legally call even <CODE>
private</CODE> methods of their class. Not that <CODE>update()</CODE> is private, which it isn't... But objects of subclasses can call <CODE>public</CODE> methods of their super classes always. Remember that subclasses cannot override methods and give them
less accessibility...
One of my goals here is to help people
think... about the answers...
I hope you appreciate that!
