Yeah, say if it was .println("ff"+deliveryName); it would show "ff"

Yeah, I've tried it a few different ways and it still wont return any values.

That appears on the showMessageDialog screen when I enter the name in the nameField and then click submit on the JButton.

public void deliveryWindow(){

JFrame newFrame = new JFrame("Delivery Details");

Container pane = getContentPane();
newFrame.setLayout(new FlowLayout());

Thanks for the replies. I have changed my code around a bit.
Inside in pizzaMenu(), I have put
deliveryName = nameField.getText();
Inside in public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
I have put:...

cannot find symbol method getText()

I actually had that bit of code in my original post but I still keep getting the same error.

Thanks for your reply, this is where I get the error

name1 = nameField.getText();

How do I go about getting my script to access the nameField?
Thanks
