hey all,

I have been working on a JFrame application and i want to add an applet to the JFrame so that I can added more than one applet working together...

I did like

Applet app = new Applet();

JFrame myFrame = new JFrame();

myFrame.getContentPane().add(app); // no proplems yet

app.init(); // oops !! NullPointerException !!!

app.start(); // No problems if I skipped the previous line !!!

Note the init() method is there in the Applet File !!
