How can I do this in JAVA

[Daren]

what i need is the following:
Create an applet that has a JTextField for the user to enter the name of a color. If the color entered is not either red, white, blue, then your applet should throw an Exception and tell the user the color entered was not valid. Otherwise change the background color to the appropriate color.

You may use the following jtextfield programming logic to apply in your project.

JTextArea textArea = new JTextArea();
textArea.setOpaque(true);
textArea.setBackground(Color.Blue);

textArea.setForeground(Color.BLACK);
textArea.setText(answer);
textArea.setBorder(CommonUI.createEtchedBorder());
textArea.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(2, 0, 2, 0));

or else you may also have the following programming logic in your project.

someField.setBackground(new JTextField().getBackground());
