    Default A few questions

    Hi guys I am pretty much a newb to java programming, I can understand the code and when I look at it ik what it does. However when it comes to coding by myself I suck.

    Anyways I was thinking up a really cool program and I know how to make some of it but other parts I have no idea.

    What I need to know is...

    *How do I make a completely custom frame/window.

    *How can I make a search program that searches something on a specific website and displays all the text and info inside the program. Ex: Open my program, type U.S in the search bar and have it display all the information from wikipedias page.

    *And last how can I make my program also load an html embed code for something like say a youtube vid?

    If any of this is possible I would be very grateful if you could tell me how to do it, or atleast show me where I can learn this thanks in advance!

    *How do I make a completely custom frame/window.
    Extend the JFrame class, and become familiar with Swing and AWT.

    *How can I make a search program that searches something on a specific website and displays all the text and info inside the program
    I suggest learning about the URL class.

    I do not know how to go about your last request. Hopefully you can use ^ to work through your program up to that point, and maybe even figure it out along the way!

    Extend the JFrame class
    Just a suggestion - unless there is a strong reason (you need to override methods of the parent class) favor composition over inheritance
