Java Code for Applet

  • THE "new" METHOD FOR CHOICES IS TRIVIAL. IT EXPECTS NO PARAMETERS.

  • AFTER CREATING A CHOICE, YOU MUST USE ITS "addItem" METHOD TO FILL IN THE MENU ITEMS:
Choice whichPic;

public void begin() {
     . . .                               
   whichPic = new Choice();
   whichPic.addItem("Face"); 
   whichPic.addItem("Tree");

   add(whichPic);
