Thread: This may sound stupid but pls help

hi i am very new to Java, pls help with my question.

    public void search(String host)
	{
		(dun bother about whats inside search)
	}
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        text.search("www.axp.com.sg");
    }

i have a error with text.search, it seems that i doesnt allow me to use the search().

Can you show us the error text?

Yep, there are too many things you're not telling us that are necessary if we can help you.

error is cannot find symbol - method search

i cant paste the whole code cos its a sch assignment

What is the class of text object? What is the class, where search() and actionPerformed() methods are located?

You have to post enough information so that we can help. Remember that we cannot read minds nor see code not shown. Also please avoid using non-standard abbreviations in your questions here. You're making helping you more difficult than it needs to be by doing this.
