In the class that doesn't work, you imported the wrong Timer.
What you need is javax.swing.Timer and not java.utils.Timer or some other Timer.

In your KeyPressed (KeyEvent e)class:
int getKey = e.getKeyCode();
if(getKey == KeyEvent.VK_0){
//if key 0 is pressed
}

Use a Timer.

E.G

int timeLeft = 180;
Timer countdown = new Timer(1000,new ActionListener(){
180--;
if(180 <= 0){
// Countdown finished
}
});

I mean like Google Chrome on a computer would not be much different to Google Chrome on a laptop apart from the different CPU and stuff...

mangopearapples 16 Posting Whiz in Training

Nah, I can deal with this problem and it might just be me and my laptop.
I don't think there's a difference between the browsers on a computer or a laptop though.

What browser are you using? try Google Chrome and see if that fixes the problem because its faster than IE. Don't know about FF because I have not used it for a couple years now.

IE is too terrible but my stupid family want me to keep it on there because 'it came with the laptop', jeez. IE wouldn't even let me watch videos without installing QuickTime after I intalled iTunes.

I use Opera, seems to be the most useful one for me.
I also have FireFox but it's too slow and I can't be bothered to remove it... Maybe i'll do it now.

I've tried Google Chrome but the page doesn't load as fast as Opera if you have a bad internet connection (only for this laptop for some reason, I have 2 and the one about not removing IE laptop is my new one with Windows 7 which I don't prefer over XP).

I agree, I thought this will provoke some POSITIVE feedback and not a lot of mockery...;)

I must say though, the thread was started when we got hit by the Russian spammer community! Maybe why we all got the remarks about spam etc...:)

Come on members, I have seen plenty of "complaints" and "suggestions" last year. If you think you have something POSITIVE to add here, write away, Dani is awaiting your suggestions AND criticism, I am sure.

OK fine, positive feedback...
The first thing that popped into my head was a good community, nearly all my Java problems get's solved by:
James Cherrill
jon.kiparsky
roxin_phoenix
So give em a medal or something ;)

Now for some criticism, I always have to wait for the web page to completely load before I can click on anything else. Which get's annoying because I always have to press the stop button before I click any other links and sometimes the page doesn't even load fully, I element missing and it doesn't completely load which makes me have to press the stop button.

Gah, you people are really disappointing. I was getting all excited when I first saw this thread and it was all about what people wanted for DaniWeb in 2011. I was all pumped to get some great feedback and ... you disappoint.

Oh c'mon, do you not believe we get spam?
I have evidence! ;)

Look at the above ^^ (Above the above on Page 1)
See, this is what I mean...
Oh wait, that's an example or something? xD

I hope anti-spamming will work really effectively. I'm nearly got killed by the amount of spam PMs I had.
