I need to use a single button and some checkboxes in my program. I have implements ItemListener in the header to use the checkboxes but how do I get the button to work. It needs to clear the text field. Do I need to implement the ActionListener some how?

Thanks!

Yes, you need to implement the ActionListener. This requires the actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) method, in which you can clear the text field (= set the text of the text field to an empty string). The button has a method called addActionListener() to link the ActionListener to it.

Ok, how do i do that when my header is as follows:

public class PetAdviceApplet extends Applet implements ItemListener

I used the ItemListener so I could use the checkboxes as well. How do I use both checkboxes and a button. When I try to put the addActionListener() in with my button in the init() method I get an error that it cannot be applied?

Any ideas?

Thanks again!!!!

You can add more than 1 interface to a class:

public class PetAdviceApplet extends Applet implements ItemListener, ActionListener
