Answer to Question #271556 in Java | JSP | JSF for KING

Question #271556

Develop a Java GUI application that will produce an Area lookup application that will allow a user to view a phone or postal code for a Town in a particular Country. Do not forget to use the marking guideline at the end of this question to see how the marks are allocated. Q.2.1 On the form create two combo boxes, one for the country selection and another to select a town. Also, add two radio buttons for the user to select to display either a phone or postal code. Q.2.2 You are also required to create a “submit” and “exit” button. The layout of the form is left to your discretion. Marks will be allocated to the presentation and effectiveness of the layout, but the following layout is displayed for your convenience.
