Any suggestions why this is coming so?
If you want to use HTMLEditorKit
you should probably be using
a JEditorPane instead of a JTextPane. (JTextPane is a subclass
of JEditorPane, but is designed to be used with StyledEditorKit.)
Probably the easiest way to do this is:
JEditorPane subjectPanel = new JEditorPane("text/html", ""); Replace "" with some HTML markup if you wish. Simple, eh?
[edit: Even though what I wrote is correct, I now realize that
I probably misjudged your problem. Swing's HTML support is fairly
primitive, and I would guess that you're just running into the
usual limitations. One example is that it doesn't handle XHTML-
style self-closing tags such as <br/> correctly--it inserts
visible artifacts as you describe.
There's no good solution to this within Swing. Many of us have
been waiting for better HTML support in Swing but it's been a
while and there's no indication it's coming. Your two main choices
are to simplify the HTML you expect it to display or to look
for a Component (or possibly just an EditorKit) from a 3rd party.]
