hi Group,
The below program compiles and runs perfectly in appletviewer on
windows but gives below error on LINUX

------------ERROR ON LINUX------------

javac MouseEvents.java
MouseEvents.java: In class `MouseEvents':
MouseEvents.java: In method
`MouseEvents.mouseDragged(java.awt.event.MouseEvent)':
MouseEvents.java:72: No method named `showStatus' in scope.
showStatus("Dragging mouse at "+ me.getX() +","+ me.getY());
^
MouseEvents.java: In method
`MouseEvents.mouseMoved(java.awt.event.MouseEvent)':
MouseEvents.java:79: No method named `showStatus' in scope.
showStatus("Moving mouse at "+ me.getX() + "," + me.getY());
^
2 errors

I am using j2sdk1.4.2 on both windows and linux.

//display message in applet window at current X,Y location
public void paint(Graphics g){
g.drawString(msg,mouseX,mouseY);
