input to java task

Hi gurus,

I've problem with the java task. I would like to run a program which prompts
the user and then reads the answer, something like this:
System.out.print("Please enter your name: "); 
BufferedReader br = 
  new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String name = br.readLine();

I don't get the prompt and the program hangs.

Any suggestion?
:-)
