Thread: problems with rendering HTML using JEditorPane

i have this code to render a locally saved html file onto a jframe. i have the following problems with how the html was rendered:

1. the texts of the 'webpage' do not wrap;
2. in order to solve my problem in 1. above, i added a JScrollPane, problem is, the scrollbars do not appear.

any help is appreciated. thanks.

i have the code below:
(main method -TryJEditor.java)

import javax.swing.JFrame;
 
public class TryJEditor {
 
	public static void main(String[] args) {
 
		TryHtml itry = new TryHtml();
		itry.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
		itry.setSize(500, 300);
		itry.setVisible(true);	
	}
}

(and the class - TryHtml.java)

import java.awt.*;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import javax.swing.*;
 
public class TryHtml extends JFrame {
 
	private JEditorPane HtmlPane;
	private JPanel pane;
	private JScrollPane scroller;
	private String url = "file:///D:\\Java Exercise Programs\\TryJEditor\\myhtml.htm";
 
	public TryHtml() {
		super("title");
		FlowLayout fl = new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT);
		setLayout(fl);
 
		pane = new JPanel();
		try {
			pane = new JPanel();
			HtmlPane= new JEditorPane(url);			
			HtmlPane.setContentType("text/html");
			HtmlPane.setEditable(false);
			HtmlPane.setSize(500, 250);	
			scroller = new JScrollPane(HtmlPane, ScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED, ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED);
 
		} catch (IOException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
 
		pane.add(scroller);
		add(pane);
		pack();		
	}
}

disregard.. i found some ideas from the internet.
i just added this new line after creating the JScrollPane.

scroller.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(int, int));
