combobox selection won't load/initialize class in a new window

问题

SEE UPDATE AT THE BOTTOM!!

I've tried to figured out how to do this for a couple of days but so far I have had no luck.

Basically what I want to do is have a combobox, which when an option is selected loads an applet, and passes a value to the applet. Here is the code for the ComboBox class, which is supposed to open the other class in a new window. The other class is the main class for an applet. They are both in the same project but in different packages. I know that there aren't any errors with the rest of the code.

 //where I evaluate the selection and then open SteadyStateFusionDemo
 // more selections just showing one code block
      combo.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
      public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent ie){
          String str = (String)combo.getSelectedItem();
               if (str.equals("NSTX")) {
                   machine = "A";
                   JFrame frame = new JFrame ("MyPanel2");
                   frame.setDefaultCloseOperation (JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                   SteadyStateFusionDemo d = new SteadyStateFusionDemo();
                   frame.getContentPane().add (new SteadyStateFusionDemo());
                   d.init();
                   frame.pack();
                   frame.setVisible (true);

And just to cover everything here is the beginning of the init() method of SteadyStateFusionDemo as well as the main method in the class. Too much code to post otherwise. There are several different privates before the init method.

    //method that initializes Applet or SteadyStateFusionDemo class       
    public void init() {

    //main method of the SteadyStateFusionDemo class
     public static void main (String[] args) {
          JFrame frame = new JFrame ("MyPanel");
          frame.setDefaultCloseOperation (JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          frame.getContentPane().add (new SteadyStateFusionDemo());
          frame.pack();
          frame.setVisible (true);

What am I doing wrong? Why doesn't my class load?

UPDATED: Changed the code so that a JFrame opens and then the JApplet loads inside. I have successfully done this in a test Java applet but for some odd reason it won't work with this Applet. I even set up the test in a similar way (The code for this is virtually the same, except with different class names, and of course a much, much shorter init() method). Can someone help me figure out why this isn't working? Also, a JFrame will open if I delete the lines referring to SteadyStateFusionDemo, but once I reference it won't work. Why does this happen?

UPDATE:
Based on your feedback, it seems you are trying to achieve the following:
Use the code of an existing Applet (found here) in a Desktop application (i.e. in a JFrame).

Converting an Applet to a Desktop application is an "undertakable" task, the complexity of which depends on how much "Applet-specific" stuff is used by the Applet. It can be as simple as creating a JFrame and adding myFrame.setContentPane(new myApplet().getContentPane()); or as complex as...hell.
This tutorial might be a good place to start.

After taking a look at the Applet at hand, it seems to be fairly easy to convert it. The only complicating factor is the use Applet's methods getCodeBase() and getImage(URL) (somewhere in the code). These two methods result in a NullPointerException if the Applet is not deployed as...an Applet.

So, what you can do is override those two methods in order to return the intended values (without the exception). The code could look like this:

/* Import the necessary Applet entry-point */
import ssfd.SteadyStateFusionDemo;

/* Subclass SSFD to override "problematic" methods */
SteadyStateFusionDemo ssfd = new SteadyStateFusionDemo() {
    @Override
    public URL getCodeBase() {
        /* We don't care about the code-base any more */
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public Image getImage(URL codeBase, String imgPath) {
        /* Load and return the specified image */
        return Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(
                this.getClass().getResource("/" + imgPath));
    }
};
ssfd.init();

/* Create a JFrame and set the Applet as its ContentPane */
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setContentPane(ssfd);

/* Configure and show the JFrame */
...

The complete code for an example JFrame Class can be found here.

Of course, you need to have all Classes from the original Applet accessible to your new Class (e.g. put the original Applet in your classpath).
