Opinon Poll Assignment

Can someone please help!. I am doing an assginment in college. I am required to do a world cup opinion poll where fans can vote which team will win the world cup in 2006. There 4 radio buttons represanting 4 countries, Brazil, England, Germany and Italy.A fan selects a button and clicks the Vote button to vote. A the vote button must be kept disabled until a button is selected. Each vote cast should increase the bar chart for that partcular team. I am doing something terribly wrong somewhere in my code. I think it is in the ActionPerformed method. I am not good in java so your help is important. I hope my explantion is sensible. Here is my code below.

import java.awt.*;

import java.awt.event.*;

import javax.swing.*;

import java.awt.geom.*;

public class TaskA extends JFrame implements ActionListener{

JLabel question = new JLabel(" Who will win the World Cup?");//Question Label

double x, y, height, width;

int country [] = new int [4];

String teams [] = {"Brazil", "England", "Germany", "Italy"};

Font italicFont = new Font("Arial",Font.ITALIC,12);

JButton btnVote ;

public TaskA(){// Constructor

super("Assign06b");

setSize(550, 450);// size of thye frame

setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

Font currentFont = new Font("Arial", Font.BOLD,20);//creating a font object for the banner/question

question.setFont(currentFont);

Font westFont = new Font("Arial", Font.ITALIC,12);// creating a font object for bar names

JRadioButton brazil = new JRadioButton("Brazil");// RadioButton1

brazil.setActionCommand("Brazil");

JRadioButton england = new JRadioButton("England");// RadioButton2

england.setActionCommand("England");

JRadioButton germany = new JRadioButton("Germany");// RadioButton3

germany.setActionCommand("Germany");

JRadioButton italy = new JRadioButton("Italy");// RadioButton4

italy.setActionCommand("Italy");btnVote.setEnabled(true);// how can I make this to appear false then change to true when radio button is selected?

btnVote.addActionListener(this);

ButtonGroup group = new ButtonGroup();//Group to hold buttons

group.add(brazil);

group.add(england);

group.add(germany);

group.add(italy);

JPanel rButtons = new JPanel();//Input Panel

BoxLayout vertical = new BoxLayout(rButtons, BoxLayout.Y_AXIS);

rButtons.setLayout(vertical);

rButtons.add(question);

rButtons.add(brazil);

rButtons.add(england);

rButtons.add(germany);

rButtons.add(italy);

rButtons.add(btnVote);

DrawFillRectPanel dr = new DrawFillRectPanel();

JPanel content = new JPanel();

BorderLayout bord = new BorderLayout();

setLayout(bord);

add(rButtons, BorderLayout.NORTH);

add(dr, BorderLayout.CENTER);

setVisible(true);

height = 40;

country[0] = 80; // I am putting here some figures so you can see what we are suppossed to do but I shoud not do it this way!!

country[1] = 0;

country[2] = 0;

country[3] = 0;

}

public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent event){

Object source = event.getSource();

// teams = "Brazil", "England", "Germany", "Italy";

if(source == btnVote){

btnVote.getActionCommand("Brazil");

for (int country [0] = 0; country [0]<= 100, country[0]++){// I don't think this is right but I am really stuck here!!

System.out.println(country[0] + "votes" + country[0] + "%");

}

else

{

btnVote.getActionCommand("England");

} if (source == btnVote)

{

btnVote.getActionCommand("Germany");

}else if (source == btnVote)

{

btnVote.getActionCommand("Italy");

}

}

//Overriding getInsets() to place custom borders round the frame.

public Insets getInsets() {

return new Insets(40, 15, 15, 15);

}

class DrawFillRectPanel extends JPanel {

public void paintComponent (Graphics comp) {

super.paintComponent (comp);

Graphics2D comp2D = (Graphics2D)comp;

comp2D.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,

RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);

setBackground(Color.cyan);

comp2D.setColor(Color.black);

x =100;

y =40;

comp2D.drawString(" ",(int) (x - 25), (int) (y-25));

Rectangle2D.Double rect = new Rectangle2D.Double();

for (int team = 0; team <4; team++) {

comp2D.drawString(teams[team],

(int) (x-70),(int) (y + (height/2)));

width = country[team]*4;

rect.setRect(x,y,width,height);

comp2D.setColor(Color.red);

comp2D.fill(rect);

comp2D.setColor(Color.black);

comp2D.setFont(italicFont);

comp2D.draw(rect);

y = y +height;

}

}

}

public static void main(String[] args){

TaskA frame = new TaskA();

}

}
