Calling an applet from an applet??

[the java fool]

I'm new to java so please excuse the ignorance. I have an applet with tabbed
pages. On one tab
I need an image map with zoom-in capabilities. I have an applet that will
do this but how can I call
an applet from within an apple? Any help appreciated.

You need a class that can do what you want. Then you can access that class
from as many applets as you like.

To do this, just extract the relevant code from the applet that contains it
now and design a class that you can call. Change the old applet to call it,
and make your new applet call it too. This will complicate your life
somewhat, because you'll have to create jar files containing your applets
plus the new imagemap class and change your html to use the jar files.

Another way to do this is to create a JavaBean out of the internal applet,
then you can use it sort of like an ActiveX control. I don't know too much
about the structure of JavaBeans, just the theory. If you do some researdh
on the Web i'm sure you'll find something
