Click the mouse in the applet window. Doubleclick the mouse. Click and drag. Type some text. Resize the browser window. Cover it and then uncover it. Keep your eye on the standard output (Java console in Netscape) while doing this.

Here are some questions to answer:

1. Can you have a mouseDown event that is not followed by a mouseUp event?
2. Can you have a mouseDown event that is not followed by a mouseDrag event?
3. Can you have a mouseUp Event that is not preceded by a mouseDown event?
4. What has to happen for a paint event to occur?
5. What's the most common event? Why?
6. Are there any events you don't see?
7. How many times can you make the start event get called? the stop event?
8. Of those events you can make occur, exactly how do you do it? How many different ways can you do it?

Finally there are a whole lot of new event methods. We'll cover them in detail in the next section. For now see under what circumstances you can make each one happen.
