It's been a while since my last encounter with Swing so it
must be something i simply forgot.

I extend a JPanel and implement MouseListener. All the
methods have empty bodies except for:
public void mouseClicked (MouseEvent e)
    {JOptionPane.showMessageDialog (null, "");}

However, nothing comes up when i click within the JPanel...

One guess is that i need to add my code to the frame that the
JPanel is hold by but that's kind of not what i'm aiming at. I
need to keep the clicking-events within the panel.

What do i forgot?
