I have multiple cancel, ok, and save buttons. When the user clicks one of these buttons, I need it to exit the JPanel, but not the whole program. I have tried multiple times and everything I do it exits the whole program. My code is below. I know there is a lot of stuff on my code and it can get confusing. Thanks in advance.

I have tried multiple times and everything I do it exits the whole program.
I don't see you code for closing the dialog so I can't guess what you might be doing wrong.
In your ActionListener you would invoke the dispose method on the dialog. The code would be something like:
JButton button = (JButton)event.getSource();
Window dialog = SwingUtilities.windowForComponent( button );
dialog.dispose();
A different approach might be to use a JOptionPane, then you don't need to code your own ActionListeners. You can easily add a panel to an option pane. The code below shows two approaches:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class OptionPanePanel
{
private static void createAndShowUI()
{
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setLocationRelativeTo( null );
frame.setVisible( true );
// Build a custom panel
JPanel panel = new JPanel( new GridLayout(2, 2) );
panel.add( new JLabel("First Name") );
JTextField firstName = new JTextField(10);
// firstName.addAncestorListener( new RequestFocusListener(false) );
panel.add( firstName );
panel.add( new JLabel("Last Name") );
JTextField lastName = new JTextField(10);
panel.add( lastName );
int result = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(
null, // use your JFrame here
panel,
"Enter Name",
JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION,
JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
if(result == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION)
{
System.out.println(firstName.getText() + " : " + lastName.getText());
}
else
{
System.out.println("Canceled");
}
// Let Option Pane build the panel for you
Object[] msg = {"First Name:", firstName, "Last Name:", lastName};
result = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(
frame,
msg,
"Enter Name...",
JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION,
JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
if (result == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION)
{
System.out.println(firstName.getText() + " : " + lastName.getText());
}
else
{
System.out.println("Canceled");
}
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable()
{
public void run()
{
createAndShowUI();
}
});
}
}
One problem with this approach is that focus will be on the OK button instead of the text field. To get around this you can use the RequestFocusListener found in Dialog Focus.

i want save input that i get from user and save them in element .
i want to access elements that user write in my UI.
and if i want save the elements in array list which kind of array list i should build.
in my UI i have text field name and text field middle name and combo box city has got 3 city name and and a radio box that it depend sex.
in final show them in console what should i do ?
this all of my code:
package ui;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class UI extends JFrame
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setVisible(true);
frame.setSize(500, 600);
BorderLayout blayout = new BorderLayout();
JButton center = new JButton();
JButton north = new JButton();
JButton south = new JButton();
JComboBox combo = new JComboBox();
combo.addItem("-");
combo.addItem("Tehran");
combo.addItem("Tabriz");
combo.addItem("Shiraz");
JRadioButton rb1 = new JRadioButton("man");
JRadioButton rb2 = new JRadioButton("weman");
frame.setLayout(blayout);
FlowLayout fLoyout = new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER);
center.setLayout(fLoyout);
south.setLayout(fLoyout);

center.add(jb5);
center.add(rb1);
center.add(rb2);

south.add(jb7);

cpanel.add(center);

cpanel.add(jb6);
cpanel.add(comment);
frame.add(cpanel,BorderLayout.CENTER);
frame.add(spanel,BorderLayout.SOUTH);
}
}
You need to use listeners to create code that runs when ui component is pressed. I added listener to every component. try it:
public class UI extends JFrame {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setSize(500, 600);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
BorderLayout blayout = new BorderLayout();
JButton center = new JButton();
JButton north = new JButton();
JButton south = new JButton();
south.addActionListener(e->{System.out.println("Save button is pressed");});
JComboBox combo = new JComboBox();
combo.addItem("-");
combo.addItem("Tehran");
combo.addItem("Tabriz");
combo.addItem("Shiraz");
combo.addActionListener(e -> {
System.out.println(((JComboBox<String>) e.getSource()).getSelectedItem());
});
JRadioButton rb1 = new JRadioButton("man");
rb1.addActionListener(e -> {
System.out.println("man: " + ((JRadioButton) e.getSource()).isSelected());
});
JRadioButton rb2 = new JRadioButton("weman");
rb2.addActionListener(e -> {
System.out.println("weman: " + ((JRadioButton) e.getSource()).isSelected());
});
frame.setLayout(blayout);
FlowLayout fLoyout = new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER);
center.setLayout(fLoyout);
south.setLayout(fLoyout);
JLabel jb1 = new JLabel("Name :");
JTextField name = new JTextField(20);
center.add(jb1);
center.add(name);
name.addActionListener(e -> {
System.out.println("name: " + ((JTextField) e.getSource()).getText());
});
JLabel jb2 = new JLabel("Family :");
JTextField family = new JTextField(20);
center.add(jb2);
center.add(family);
family.addActionListener(e -> {
System.out.println("family: " + ((JTextField) e.getSource()).getText());
});
JLabel jb4 = new JLabel("City :");
center.add(jb4);
center.add(combo);
JLabel jb5 = new JLabel("Sex :");
center.add(jb5);
center.add(rb1);
center.add(rb2);
JLabel jb6 = new JLabel("Comment :");
JTextField comment = new JTextField(50);
comment.addActionListener(e -> {
System.out.println("comment: " + ((JTextField) e.getSource()).getText());
});
JLabel jb7 = new JLabel("Save");
south.add(jb7);
JPanel cpanel = new JPanel();
cpanel.add(center);
JPanel spanel = new JPanel();
spanel.add(south);
cpanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(cpanel, BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));
cpanel.add(jb6);
cpanel.add(comment);
frame.add(cpanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
frame.add(spanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}
You will have to put JRadioButton into RadioGroup to select one of them.
At first, you need to check your GUI, because from skimming it works not good. Later you can get data from the different component using an appropriate listener for each component or you can use any General button to reading data from all components and print it in a console or anywhere else.
To get data from combo, for example, will be here:
String data = combo.getSelectedIndex();

How can I get the user input in Java?
My JRadioButton does not appear in the JFrame.
It should appear below the Method of payment. If the user picks the creditRadioButton, the creditCardLabel and the creditTextField appears.

The output:
You did not add buttons[0] and buttons[1] to the panel. Try to add them after this line add(methodLabel); and check the result.
add(buttons[0]);
add(buttons[1]);
I am trying to display the drawing that I have posted. When my code runs and the user clicks Account, the panel only displays the buttons "OK" and "Cancel" (see screenshot). I have added three JTextAreas with a JLabel for each to the panel accountPanel but they don't display. My code is below.

JPanel uses FlowLayout by default which respects preferred sizes. The default width of the preferred size for the JTextArea's is 0 x 0. You need to give the JTextComponent's a preferred size for them to appear. Use the constructor that specifys rows & columns:
JTextArea card = new JTextArea(5, 10);
Don't forget to make the JTextArea scrollable by enclosing it in a JScrollPane:
accountPanel.add(new JScrollPane(card));
My program is showing that it is running successfully, but my dialogue box will not show up. I am new to Java and I am not sure where I am going wrong can someone help? I am trying to write to a file that will store the input from the user

new Database();
calls an empty Constructor, because you dont define none.
Change public void Database() {} to public Database()
Also, you have to eliminate Database Dab = new Database(); from your Constructor and change the Line Dab.setSize(800,300); to setSize(800,300);
Your Code will work when you make this changes but you should really work on your Programming Style and Code Formatting.
I have a problem with my code below.
There are three menu items (Customer, Merchandize and Employee) in the Add Information Menu. Clicking on them (using addActionListener) should show various text fields/radio buttons/combo-boxes (which are required to fill in information) and a submit button.
After submitting the required information and clicking the submit button it should print the information to a Pop-up window.
I am stuck at the last point where it should call the actionPerformed method again and print the values to a Pop-up window. Can anyone help?
EDITED##I have edited my code. My problem starts from line no. 216 to line no. 225. When I click on the button "submit3" of the Customer menuitem, the pop-up appears but does not show the contents of the string that contains contents of "txt1". How do I pass the values of my components to actionPerformed so that it can print them in a new pop-up window?

This last test:
if(e.getSource()==submit1)
will never succeed because submit1 is a JButton that you just constructed at the start of actionPerformed and thus cannot be the source for the current event.
Instead of constructing new layout components like this, I suggest that you use a CardLayout for p2 and just flip to the appropriate card in your action handler. That way you can register listeners for all the buttons once and you will get notified of all events properly.
Also, instead of having one giant actionPerformed that tests for the source, you should register separate ActionListeners for each UI component. That keeps the logic (and the code) a lot cleaner.
EDIT
For instance, instead of this:
emp.addActionListener(this);
merc.addActionListener(this);
cust.addActionListener(this);
you could do this:
emp.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
// logic for click on emp button
}
});
merc.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
// logic for click on merc button
}
});
// etc.
You then don't need implements ActionListener for your main class.
Then, if you use a CardLayout for p2, you can, at the start of your program, attach action listeners to every one of the interface elements. The logic for responding to any particular action then becomes much simpler--merely updating the appropriate UI elements and switching which "card" to show in p2. See the docs for CardLayout for more info on this last part.
You can either call .doClick() of appropriate next menu item
OR
define separete methods (e.g. doEmpAction() and doCustAction() ) which are called from the appropriate actionPerformed() methods and call them one from another. So doCustAction just call doEmpAction.
