Someone please help I've been trying to get this working for hours and
haven't even started my project lol

You should not be creating files in the Java bin/ subdirectory - that's not a
data directory. Really, you shouldn't have write privilege to that directory,
but that's a problem with Windows.

Create some separate projects directory and do your work there.

Use the -classpath (or -cp) option to your compilation and execution of Java
code. The tutorials on java.sun.com go into this.



Ok, your going to have to explain things.

I understand that I should have the files in a different directory than the
Java bin subdirectory, although does that really have any effect on my
program not working?

Also I still don't understand this classpath.

I just need to know how to get elements working.

It seems like I'd set it right so that it can compile as it did, it just
doesn't run the .class file that was created, this is what I don't understand.


Can you explain more please :)
