    <p>I am trying to set the look and feel (LAF) of a Java applet that is used via a web browser. I wish to set the system default LAF, but when loaded in a browser, the applet returns to the Metal LAF. When I run it as a stand-alone applet, the LAF is applied correctly. The only item I am showing the user is a JFileChooser. I have tried a number of methods to overcome this including:</p> <h2>1) Override the applet's start() method:</h2> <pre><code>@Override public void start() { try { UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()); SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(this); System.out.println("LOOK AND FEEL SET!"); } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println(ex); } } </code></pre> <h2>2) Set it in the static initializer of the applet class:</h2> <pre><code>static { try { UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()); System.out.println("LOOK AND FEEL SET!"); } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println(ex); } } </code></pre> <h2>3) Set it in the constructor of the applet:</h2> <pre><code>public MyApplet() { try { UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()); SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(this); System.out.println("LOOK AND FEEL SET!"); } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println(ex); } } </code></pre> <p>I am using Java 6, but targeting Java 5 on Windows. In every case, <em>LOOK AND FEEL SET!</em> gets printed to the console, so I know that it set it without throwing an exception. This happens irrespective of browser (using Firefox 3.6 and IE7). <strong>Why is it doing this and how can I get it to respect the LAF I designate?</strong></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
