if this is not an exercise in debugging, you will need to download a copy of the api docs, and have them handy.
rather than tell you what the fixes are, I'll show you where you can get the answers.
Cannot find symbol variable "container" variable created in the program, check the spelling
Cannot find symbol variable "Both" check the api docs for spelling/capitalization i.e. go to the docs for the specific class (GridBagConstraints) and check the member variables
Cannot find symbol variable "Center" check the api docs for spelling/capitalization
Cannot find symbol class "Inserts" check the api docs for spelling/capitalization
ok, thanks for that. I always forget Java is so strict when it comes to case. I'm too use to VB lol. So I figured out all my problems in the above post, but have now ran into a new one. I created another class to call the layout but when I run it, nothing happens. No errors, no frame. I'm following this book I have exaclty and still can figure it out. Any ideas?
