- Post compilable code.
- Add any compilation or error output received, or
failing that, a description of the actual as opposed
to expected behaviour.
- Ask a question (beyond the 'my slider??' in the sub. -
which makes no sense to me, as a question).
- Have a subject line that matches the components
mentioned. Is this about JSpinner or JSlider?
