Hello Khurram, Thank you for the response. I have since found the error. I just D/L'd the new Java-Plugin v1.3.0.1 (j2re-1_3_0_01-win.exe) The new version of the plug-in enhances debugging greatly. It provides a visual error dialog with the error description. It also allows greater interaction with the debugging console. As a result of this fruitful upgrade when the applet I am having problems with is launched outside the JBuilder IDE in an external browser, it now displays an error dialog with the following error: The dialog is entitled : "Java Plugin Exception Dialog" with an error message of .... "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/borland/jbcl/layout/VerticalFlowLayout" I did try changing the layout type for every component in the project to NULL. When I load the applet in Netscape's browser externally it does not display the error. The combobox's drop down also displays in the correct position!!! In another forum a reader posted a response that informed me the VerticalFlowLayout class is a Borland implementation and because I did not include that .JAR file in the applet's tag the class was not found. Thanks for offering to look at my code to help me find this error. I am in the process of altering my code to accommodate this now. If I still find the problem exists I will re-post another message.
