Scrolling Applet

[Tetsuo Suzuki]

Hello all. I need to write a scrolling applet for some content on a website I'm working on. I've looked at some of the free scroll applets out there but they are not flexible enough for me and all 'closed source'.
I tried to use a thread with a looping 'repaint()' where I had a paint method that looked something like this:

  
int x,y;
public void paint(Graphics g){
g.drawString("foo",x,y);
x++;y++;
}

The above doesn't redisplay the text, in fact I get a blank screen. Can anyone point me in the right direction or tell me where some samples are? Is it better to scroll in a component like a textfield?
Thanks much
Tetsuo!
