Need help with sequential displayin of cards
i am doing an assignment where my applet is supposed to be a card game. here is how its sposed to look lik:
http://www.cs.tcu.edu/10403/Lab6/L6.html
and what i am having trouble with is getting the cards to show up the way they do. here was my attempt at solving this problem:
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Lab6Project extends Applet implements ..... ActionListener
{
.
.
.
.
TextField tf1 = new TextField(10),
ta1 = new TextField(),
ta2 = new TextField(),
ta3 = new TextField(),
ta4 = new TextField(),
ta5 = new TextField();
.
.
.
.
boolean ta2state = false,
ta3state = false,
ta4state = false,
ta5state = false;
public void init()
{
pmiddle2a.add(ta1);
pmiddle2a.setLayout(null);
ta1.setBounds(10, 10, 100, 160);
ta1.setEditable(false);
ta1.setVisible(true);
pmiddle2.add(pmiddle2b);
pmiddle2b.add(ta2);
pmiddle2b.setLayout(null);
ta2.setBounds(10, 10, 100, 160);
ta2.setEditable(false);
ta2.setVisible(false);
pmiddle2.add(pmiddle2c);
pmiddle2c.add(ta3);
pmiddle2c.setLayout(null);
ta3.setBounds(10, 10, 100, 160);
ta3.setEditable(false);
ta3.setVisible(false);
pmiddle2.add(pmiddle2d);
pmiddle2d.add(ta4);
pmiddle2d.setLayout(null);
ta4.setBounds(10, 10, 100, 160);
ta4.setEditable(false);
ta4.setVisible(false);
pmiddle2.add(pmiddle2e);
pmiddle2e.add(ta5);
pmiddle2e.setLayout(null);
ta5.setBounds(10, 10, 100, 160);
ta5.setEditable(false);
ta5.setVisible(false);
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
if (e.getSource() == blower) //this is one of the lower button
{
if (ta2state == false)
{
ta2state = true;
ta2.setVisible(true);
}
}
}
}
what i was trying to do was that make the applet set the next card visible if the card isn't but it isn't workin. if theres a mistake with the brackets, ignore them, its probably a copying error since the applet compiles n runs, but doesnt do taht part of the code or something. thanks for any help, please help!
