... and where the buttons go, and how large they are, what
colors they have, what font to use etc etc. This approach
essentially requires to add a java parser and interpreter
to the applet, and would be quite tedious to author.
I think it is much simpler and more flexible to use the
clickable frame. To create a button is as simple as
cutting and pasting one in Photoshop. And pixel position has
to be specified in both cases.
