Abstract

In most of the applets and applications we have looked at so far, we have not mentioned how to control the positioning of components on the screen, we have relied on Visual J++ to use defaults, which in the case of applets adds components in a left to right, top to bottom order. If you have tried some of the examples in the previous chapter, you may have found that your programs did not look exactly the same as the figures. This is because you may have specified a different sized applet area in your HTML file, or have a different default font type and size where this is not controlled explicitly in the program.
