i found JEditorPane can show html code,

i try use

JEditorPane editor = new JEditorPane();

editor.setContentType("text/html");

editor.setText("asdasd");

it ok, but when i tried 2 way to append text:

editor.setText(editor.getText()+"asdasd");

String html = editor.getText();

editor.setText(html+"asdasd");

it show a blank screen, nothing on it

how can i do to append text/html to JEditorPane?

thanks

Don't know what you exact requirement is, but I find it easier to work with attributes than with HTML:

textComponent.setCaretPosition( textComponent.getDocument().getLength() );
