Help: JComboBox and Events

[johnome]

Hi, this is my first time here and i was just wondering if anyone could answer a question for me.
How do you use events such as ItemListener or ActionListener with JComboBoxs? Say if I have a JComboBox

JComboBox jc = new JComboBox();
jc.addItem("track a");
jc.addItem("track b");
jc.addItem("track c");

Container contentPane = getContentPane();
//setLayout

jc.addItemListener(this);

contentPane.add(jc);

I know how to setup a combo box but i don't know how to get it to do something. What I want to be able to do is that if the users chooses "track a" from the JComboBox , then it does something else. I've been looking for a way to get the action to choose something.
I know you use getSource() and things like that but , as you can see, I'm a bit confused about it. If anyone know any good sites for JComboBox tutorials or could help , I would be very grateful.

So my question is, How do I get an ItemListener to get the chouice from the JComboBox and then do something with that.
Thanks for your time.

The ActionListener should do it...check out http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutor.../combobox.html for a tutorial that includes using listeners with comboboxes. Hope that helps, if not, come back and let me know.
