    copied!<p>OK, so here what I need. I have an if statement that if it returns true, then to add text to a string, and if it is else, then add different text to the same string. Heres my code:</p> <pre><code> import java.awt.*; import java.util.*; import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.event.*; public class theclock extends JFrame { theclock() { final JLabel timeField = new JLabel(); timeField.setFont(new Font("sansserif", Font.PLAIN, 20)); Container content = this.getContentPane(); content.setLayout(new FlowLayout()); content.add(timeField); setTitle("Norway"); setSize(150,70); javax.swing.Timer t = new javax.swing.Timer(1000,new ActionListener() { public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar(); String a = ""; //empty string that I want to add text to String h = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.HOUR)+8); //I know its not the easiest way to add 8 hours, but im experimenting. int i = Integer.parseInt(h); if (i&gt;12) { i=i-12; a = "A.M"; //what to add to the string if it is true } else { i=i; //haven't applied myself to this part yet, so i know its probably wrong, but its just a place holder a = "P.M"; //for when it is else, i should say pm. } String m = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.MINUTE)); String s = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.SECOND)); timeField.setText("" + i + ":" + m + ":" + s + " " + a); //where the string is shown. } }); t.start(); } public static void main(String[] args) { JFrame clock = new theclock(); clock.setVisible(true); } } </code></pre>
