Menu bar on Applet

[mickjbud]

Hi all

I am trying to write a web applet with a menu bar on but unfortunately I am having trouble understanding how you go about this. Can you only add a menu bar to a frame?

Any help is most welcome.

Please look at setJMenuBar in the document in this link

Thanks prosper for the link but I forgot to mention I need to do this without using swing. I have managed to write the menuBar into the frame but when I run the prog using AppletViewer I get two windows opened, one is the applet the other is the frame. Is there any way to add a menu bar without using frame or swing to an applet. The applet needs to be attached to the web page and not floating.

Thanks
Mick

I find right click popup menu in applet, here is the code

    import java.awt.*;
    import java.applet.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;

    public class PopupMenuTest extends Applet implements ActionListener {

	PopupMenu popup;

	public void init() {	    
            MenuItem mi;

	    popup = new PopupMenu("Edit");

            mi = new MenuItem("Cut");
            mi.addActionListener(this);
	    popup.add(mi);

            mi = new MenuItem("Copy");
            mi.addActionListener(this);
	    popup.add(mi);

	    popup.addSeparator();

            mi = new MenuItem("Paste");
            mi.addActionListener(this);
	    popup.add(mi);

	    add(popup); // add popup menu to applet
           
            enableEvents(AWTEvent.MOUSE_EVENT_MASK); 

	    resize(200, 200);
        }

	public void processMouseEvent(MouseEvent e) {

	    if (e.isPopupTrigger()) { 
	        popup.show(e.getComponent(), e.getX(), e.getY());
	    }
	    super.processMouseEvent(e);
        }

        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
	    String command = e.getActionCommand();

            if (command.equals("Cut")) {
	        // perform cut operation
            } else if (command.equals("Copy")) {
                // perform copy operation
            } else if (command.equals("Paste")) {
                // perform paste operation
            }
        }
    }
