    Please see the link in my signature on asking questions the smart way, as well as this: http://www.javaprogrammingforums.com...e-posting.html

    If you do not have time to ask an actual question, use highlight tags, create an SSCCE, or even tell us what the actual problem is, why would you expect somebody else to put their time in? We're all doing this for free, in our spare time, and it's extremely rude to just dump your code here and mark it urgent.

    Clean this post up using the resources I just gave you, and we'll go from there.
