Please continue in your original thread: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=671048Please go there and repaste your code, using the [code] and [/code] tags (see button above posting box), so that you don't get italics.

Cut and paste your code, rather than retyping it. Post it between [code] and [/code] tags. Please post a [url=http://www.physci.org/codes/sscce.jsp]short, concise, executable example[/url] of what you're trying to do. This does not have to be the actual code you are using. Write a small example that demonstrates your intent, and only that. Wrap the code in a class and give it a main method that runs it - if we can just copy and paste the code into a text file, compile it and run it without any changes, then we can be sure that we haven't made incorrect assumptions about how you are using it.
