Re: TextArea cannot be resolved to a type

2008-11-29 Thread moe374

Thank you for your response. I did actually find the getText() and
setText() methods before writting this, I was just a little unsure as
to how to implement them. the URL feature is an essential element of
the program I am trying to write. Since I can't do this with GWT and I
can't do this using an applet either (applets can only connect to the
same server as well i believe), I think I have hit a dead end. What
other options do I have? What do you recommend I use to create this
type of web application?
Thanks for your help.

TextArea cannot be resolved to a type

2008-11-28 Thread moe374

Hello. I have just begun learning java (about 2 months ago) and am now
trying to develop a couple applications for the web using java and the
GWT. I am having some difficulty and hoping someone can help me out.
My first problem I am having is I am getting this error message
"TextArea cannot be resolved to a type" when I am trying to create a
text area. I get the error message twice, and for the same line in my
code which is

TextArea ta = new TextArea();

Is there a line (or multiple lines) of code I have to implement before
I can implement the TextArea object?

Also, I need to allow the user to paste some information into this
text box and allow me to store that information in a variable, and
then do something with the information, and then output some
information to the user (even in the same text box is fine). Can some
one please help me get started on this?

Finally, I was wondering if the GWT supports reading the HTML file of
a URL, which would normally be done by something like this:

URL results = new URL("http://www.some-url.com";);

BufferedReader in2 = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
results.openStream()));
String inputLine = in2.readLine();

Thank you very much.
