SwingX, UI, and Applet
I spent most of my time getting SwingX to work with eclipse and to be in the CVS repository. I was reading a lot about JTables and how to use them properly, but I am not having good luck with getting those to work properly with the SwingX components. So I worked on making some menus as to what I think would be good to implement.
I haven’t figured out how I am going to do everything yet. I have a good understanding of how I want to implement the timecard part of the program, so I put more menu buttons under it. So far it isn’t functional, but I am just getting the UI to work right now. I spent some time creating some of the basic menus I plan to implement and tried to run it as a JApplet.I am having problems getting the JApplet to work properly, but hopefully I will have it working by the meeting on Wednesday.
I spent 4 hours creating and testing shell commands to compile my javadocs and java files and deploy them along with all the other files I need into my Tomcat folder. I tested it out and now the javadocs link on my page should work.
I spent a couple hours testing JTables and reading about TableModels and TableColumnRenderers, so that I can finish the GUI for my TimeCard portion of the program.
The Applet link is still not working. Even worse it is locking up my browser so I can’t use it after I open that page. I keep getting a ClassNotFoundException, but I put the class in the same folder. Hopefully I can figure out why it is doing this. If not, I can just show my UI at our meeting on my laptop.

Yea, my Tomcat went down after the server restarted. It’s fixed now.

I am getting an error when I try to load the applet and then I get another webpage which I am emailing you when I try the time card
