Hi Kaushik,
A can be added to a container because Applet is a subclass of Panel which can be added to a container.

Hello Kaushik...
applet is inherited from panel.

Hi Manfred & Steve,
i know that applet is inherited from panel but have u seen any code where an applet has been added to a container for eg a panel or a frame. can u provide me a code snippet of the same ?
Pls do reply
Thx in advance
Regards,
Kaushik

U can add an applet to a frame and viceversa.
U can try it urself. and lets not forget that an applet runs in an appletviewer too.

[Manfred Leonhardt]

Here you go.

import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
class AA extends Frame
{
  public AA()
  {
    Applet app = new Applet();
    Label l = new Label( "Applet" );
    app.add( l );
    add( app );
    setSize( 100, 100 );
  }
  public static void main( String[] args )
  {
    AA aa = new AA();
    aa.setVisible( true );
  }
}

Enjoy,
Manfred.

Hi Manfred & Steve,
thanks 4 the code . i managed 2 add the applet on a frame. pls can u consider the question again. it says Menu cannot be added 2 a container but PopUp Menu is also a menu & it can be added 2 any component . then isn't the q wrong? what do u think?
Regards,
Kaushik

It hasn't mentioned popupmenu in the the choice's.Menu is wrong because u cannot add a menu to thecontainer directly,In order to add menu to a conatiner u got to add a menubar inside which u can add menu but not directy.
