Hi!

I made an applet in one class.
Now I would like to call two of the methods in a certain timeinterval.
Something like javascript's setInterval("method()", milliseconds);

The one method has to run every minute and the other on every fifth
minute.
Is that possible without making more classes? and how?

Look into java.util.Timer

If you are using Swing Applet you can use its Timer class
Have a look at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/swing/Timer.html for details
