Assignment 3 : Due Friday, January 24th
General Rules:
1. Please hand in only your own work.
2. Grades discounted 10% per day late.
Actual Tasks:
This program should be an applet.
Before trying to code/design/whatever, look carefully
at examples 5-4, 7-1, and 7-2 from the book.
The applet should be in a subdirectory with
five plain ascii files (xxxx.txt: make 'em smallish, but
whatever). The applet should fetch the URL of the
directory (ingnore the html junk returned, and the
non *.txt entries) and create a checkbox option
group (annotated with the names of the various files
in that directory) for the user to pick from.
The user should click on one of the checkboxes,
then press an "ok" button; then the applet should
return the contents of that file.
1) Hard copy of the Java Source Code
2) The location (on the UMBC) system of the
running application.
N.B. To get full credit, the code must be running
successfully on the UMBC student systems.
