How can I arrange objects in an applet?

[airplanenut]

I finally wrote my first applet! Wahoo!

Now I want to pretty it up... align each Label with the appropriate text box, provide some space between lines, etc...

Right now, I'm doing this by making the box really thin (hence the cut off text at the bottom).

I may also want to add color, change fonts, etc...

Any help you can provide me would be great... the applet is here:

Some people also say they cannot run the applet--it shows up, but won't return any numbers...

Do you have any idea why this may be?

anyone?
