Nice.
But after closing the browser window with this game, there comes every time a NullPointerException.
Can you please trying, if it helps to add the following SUB to your Applet1 class?
There existing four SUBs which are automatically called in Java Applets:

Hi theuserbl,
I changed what sub the timers are shut off in to Sub destroy()... and guess what? It worked. **Thank you** I have been trying to figure out how to do this for, quite some time with little success. How did you figure this out? =P
To all of those as confused as me... Please note that.. Sub Applet_Destroy() and Sub Destroy() are not the same thing, obviously lol.
This was the main reason I would get exceptions in all of my other web applets too when closing them. I knew there had to be a way. And you got it! Once again, a sincere thank you for this info.
Sincerely,
Jason

Source code
Hi,
I have made the source code to this applet available at http://www.tecktronic.net/xmasgame_sourcecode.zip
This is a basic example of how to use the .PaintPicture method and an animation loop, without the need of using any sockets or connection to a remote server.
Please compile your applet as a .jar file and place in same web server directory as index.html and xmasgame_with_facebook_posting.html . The facebook html file shows how to make 'prompts' to post things to a users wall popup, using string data from the applet itself (score, etc). This feature uses javascript, there are ways to do it with php too.
Enjoy, and please let me see anything cool that gets derived from this.
Regards,
Jason

HolidayGame II / XmasGameV2
Hello,
I have finally updated this code to work properly with JRE 7. I do not know if it will work with older versions of JRE for sure. Some things were depreciated going into JRE 7, and for whatever reason, pictures/images can, but wav files can no longer be embedded as a resource in Jabaco and be utilized the same way. To get around this, I found a different way to download the wav files off of the same web server the applet and html files for it sit, and at applet loadtime is where it loads the wav files after downloading each one, into memory, then they can be played.
I had to do the same thing with my JRPGT project, in order to get sound to continue to work, in my all my apps it seems. Also, I found that signing the JAR file before deploying it (after each recompile), cured problems of 'access denied' exceptions when trying to open a URL in the same or new tab, window, etc (at applet browser run time) using the BrowserBareBones class (which also must be included as a reference in your project, the jar file for BBB).
Facebook also changed the way you can allow things to be posted to players walls too, so I have the "High Score" popup posting not working yet still, but that in itself is what allowed this app to spread itself around facebook so easily.
Anyways, I will have a new source code zip containing the Jabaco project/source, and put together and posted soon. Inside it will contain not only the project src code, but an htdocs folder for you to place its content into your own htdocs folder on your web server, etc.. and possibly with a README file. It will include the html/php/js for using this demo the facebook way and the way it presents the same .jar file on my website directly. I also use invisible counters from statcounter.com to keep track of my hits per app.
This is no network server required for this applet/demo, except a web server.
Stay tuned for another reply to this thread with a zip file or link to one with the project source/bones
