Strange Problem, JTextField.getText() not working

Hey folks, I have a JApplet I am working on, building it in Netbeans 5.5.1. I am using the following Swing components for part of the applet:

JTextFieldjUsernameTextField

JTextFieldjPasswordTextField

JButtonjLoginButton

Here is part of my button release handler:

private void jLoginButtonMouseReleased(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {

System.out.println( "user=(" + jUsernameTextField.getText() + ") pass=(" + jPasswordTextField.getText() + ")" );

}

In the Netbeans IDE when I do a test compile/run it works fine, the username and password are retrieved from the components getText() methods -- when I use the appletviewer that came with my Java install ( jdk1.6.0_01 ) or load the applet via Firefox or MSIE the two textfield getText() methods return an empty string - no exceptions are thrown, nothing in the Java Console to point me to what might be wrong.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, not sure what to look into.

Thanks!

-Andy

Why do you need a mouse listener on the button? Register an action listener on it.

I am confused as to why that would make any difference, the mouse listener is working, the method is being called, but the textfields do not seem to have any text to return.*confused*

Just to rule it out as a solution I followed your suggestion and removed the mouse listener and added an Action Listener, it has the same problem, it displays the text when the button is fired but getText() returns empty strings for the two textfields, even when there is valid text in the visible component.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Andy

Without seeing a working demo, I can only make a couple of guesses:

1) search your file to see if "jUsernameTextField = new JTextField..." is called more than once. You may be recreating the object unwantingly (is that a word?). Likewise for your password field.

2) search your file to see if "JTextField jUsernameTextField" is declared more than once, perhaps as a class member once and also as a local member to a method elsewhere. Your actionListener may be referring to the "wrong" one. Likewise for your password field.

[nobr]I searched through and did not see either of the problems you mentioned. Sorry about the duplicate post, when I looked before re-posting there had been no new replies ad I figured the topic was dead...

Here is the full source copied from the Netbeans editor. It works fine when I run it inside Netbeans via the Run command, which is why I can't figure out why those textfields fail when its run as a normal applet... BTW - I changed the two textfield names to jUsername and jPassword after deleting the components and recreating them (hoping that would help ).
