    Java help - .jar unable to find MySQL driver

    I had the same issue before and the way I solved it was to add the following to the MANIFEST file: Class-Path: mysql-connector-java-3.0.15-ga-bin.jar Worked for me, although the jar file for your application has to be in the same directory as the driver.

    getCellRenderer() method signature returns this, not the panel? I can only get the labels to show up if I return a panel I've created and added labels to it. If I return "this", and add Labels using add(label), I see nothing....

    Java Swing Gurus?

    That certainly clears several things up. Just a couple more questions. Should I explicitly create a new Jpanel to add/delete the labels from the list? And what class should I create it in? public JPanel thepanel = new JPanel(new FlowLayout()); public LinkedList labelList = new...
