Real tricky question you got. I took me too much time to figure out
what was wrong. I couldnt figure out at first but finally I got this
idea. As far as the code is concerned it is fine. But when you say
fontPlain.addActionListener(this) , there lies the problem. Does your
application or applet or class which includes the initialization
implements the ActionListener Interface? Otherwise try doing it. But
then as you say the code compiles well, then there should be no
problem. But check this out and if it does not work, I got another
solution. But that afterwards.If this aint working send me the code in
mail and I will fix it up for you.
