Why do you have all those classes :D ?



[TheTigerTutorials]

@MultiGamerDA They are other programs, Ignore them, they are unrelated to the current program.

[TheTigerTutorials]

@MultiGamerDA Because I'm a busy programmer.

Great Tutorials...i wanted to ask that if can we change its title ??

[TheTigerTutorials]

@MsHappyNails Thanks for watching Tiger Tutorials, Answer: You can change the title of the message by adding more items to the parameter, it would be done like this: JOptionPane.showInputDialog(nu­ll,"Please enter number","TITLE",JOptionPane.PL­AIN_MESSAGE); . You can change the icon to the left of the message by replacing PLAIN MESSAGE with any of these: ERROR_MESSAGE, INFORMATION_MESSAGE, WARNING_MESSAGE, QUESTION_MESSAGE. Take a look at the Java API, hit Ctrl F and type in "JOptionPane".
