    problem with compile


    Dear java.help:

    I just started learning java and was trying to compile some java sourc
    from the Javascript World Submission webpage. I know I have loaded m
    JDK successfully since I can compile other examples but when I try t
    compile the following code, I get several errors.

    I typed "javac J1.java(source file name)"

    Any feedback is appreciated.

    thanks
    Banjo

    errors:
    class Class1 is public, should be declared in a file named Class1.java

    cannot resolve symbol
    symbol: variable JOptionPane

    *************
    The name of the file needs to be the same as the class if the class is
    public
    the first line in the error messages tells the true story.
    (You tried to compile "J1.java" and the file should be "Class1.jav a"
