Applet Methods

The applet on this page prints out a message each time one of the (major) applet methods is called. The message is printed with System.out.println(), which means that you'll need to look in the Java Console window to see the messages.
Neither browser displays the Java console by default, so you'll have to ask to see it. In Netscape use the Communicator menu and choose Java Console. In Explorer, use either Java Console (Windows) or Java Messages (Mac) under the View menu. You won't see the Java Console choice on the View menu in Explorer unless you check off the 'Java console enabled' button in the Advanced tab of the Internet Options dialog.
