Thread: Login Page error

I have this code for creating a login page.I want that as soon the username and password are verified, control should be tranfered to another page which is Main.java in this case.But as soon as I verify the username and password Main.java is not executed.Actually nothing happens after verifying the code.Can someone tell me where I am going wrong?

I have several issues with your code:

Your indentation is all over the place like a mad womans knitting which makes it a nightmare to read.

String username = new String(jTextField1.getText());
Why create a new String? The getText method returns a String so just assign it to the variable.

Why have you declared instance variables for username and password and then in the actionPerformed method you use local variables with the same names and totally ignore the instance variables?

Why have actionListeners for the textfields at all?

Use meaningful names for variables, jLabel1 and jLabel2 etc means nothing to someone trying to read your code.

my Main.java class code is written below.I have changed the username assignment as per you have shown above but still this it is not gowing to the Main.java file

nothing happens after verifying the code.Can someone tell me where I am going wrong?

I'm sure something happens. But not what you want. What do you expect to happen?
Try debugging your code by adding some printlns to show where the execution flow goes. Add printlns to all the methods and constructors and inside of if statements so you will see from the print out where the execution goes.

And that is not how you define a main. Should be:

public static void main(String Args[]) extends JDesktopPane {

I couldnt understand that how inheriting JDesktopPane will affect the whole program?I have to access this Main.java from no.java.So technically I can even work with no main(String [] args) in Main.java also.I have written main(String [] args) to check that weather the code of Main.java is executing alone or not.And it is executing when I am running only Main.java but it is not executing from no.java

Why do you have the Main class extend the JDesktopPane class?
Can a JDesktopPane class be displayed outside of a frame?
