The following is code I have written for an Applet. The code is very
large and cumbersome (I am not that confident with Arrays as I am very
new to this).
However the applet works fine and does everything I want it to do
except for one crucial piece. I have tried over the last few days to
get this part working but with no success the following is the part
that does not work:

//This is the solution for the puzzle based on points within the grid
that pawns are placed

           if(x >= 90 && x <= 130 && y >= 10 && y <= 50){

           if(x >= 250 && x <= 290 && y >= 10 && y <= 50){

           if(x >= 90 && x <= 130 && y >= 50 && y <= 90){

           if(x >= 170 && x <= 210 && y >= 50 && y <= 90){

           if(x >= 10 && x <= 50 && y >= 90 && y <= 130){

           if(x >= 50 && x <= 90 && y >= 90 && y <= 130){

           if(x >= 250 && x <= 290 && y >= 130 && y <= 170){

           if(x >= 50 && x <= 90 && y >= 170 && y <= 210){

           if(x >= 210 && x <= 250 && y >= 210 && y <= 250){

           if(x >= 290 && x <= 350 && y >= 210 && y <= 250){

           if(x >= 10 && x <= 50 && y >= 250 && y <= 290){

           if(x >= 130 && x <= 170 && y >= 250 && y <= 290){

           if(x >= 210 && x <= 250 && y >= 290 && y <= 350){

           if(x >= 290 && x <= 350 && y >= 290 && y <= 350){

           message = "Congratulations!";
           message1 = "You solved it";
           pawncount = 14;
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }
           }

Could anybody point me in the right direction or perhaps have a look at
the code and fix it. As I said it is not for lack of trying to get it
to work, I just lack the knowledge although I am learning every day
I would be very grateful for any help.
Here is the full code;
