I am a newbie and trying to use JTextArea
JTextArea(int rows, int columns)
How does one control input into a particular column on a particular row.
Example:

I want a border appears when I roll over with the mouse over a button.
And when I quit the button area the border should be disappeared. At
first I resolved the problem by setting a LineBorder in the
mouseEntered method and setting an EmptyBorder in the mouseExited

Does anyone know how to create a Jdialog or a frame that will stay on top
(of any kind of windows in Microsoft Windows) ?
Thanks in advance

I wrote application which doesn't use graphic at all. One part of
application
needs Parser class from javax.swing.text.html.HTMLEditorKit. The ridiculous
fact is when I try to instantiate parser, jvm wants to connect to X11

based on <http://jtidy.sourceforge.net/howto.html>, I'm
doing the following from windows 2000:
C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator/Desktop\jtidy-04aug2000r7-dev\build>

While I have some simple printing working in the app I'm developing, I'm
looking for some suggestions as to the approach to take in a more
complex situation.
I have a dialog that contains a table embedded within a scrolling pane.

I'd like to choose the right font for the native language of the system I'm
running on.
Instead of:
     if (language.equals(Locale.ENGLISH.getLanguage()))

Hello,
I want to have a dialog with additional display of details which only open
on request. To achieve this I could
* start from scratch. I have to reinvent all the work done in JOptionPane

This has been addressed to some extent in the past, save for the
following point:
how does one create an image from a specified area of a JPanel without
retrieving the whole graphics data?

I tried it again.
And I must admit Thomas was right and I was wrong.
model.setRoot() does the job.
Thanks Thomas.

Hi Group,
I'm writing HTML into a label.
I changed the background to black and now I'm in trouble.
There doesn't seem to be any way to get the bullets of <ol> or <ul> to

Assuming you have the following classic combination of ...
*) a JTable,
*) a TableSorter and
*) a TableModel

I have made a JTree:
JTree tree = new JTree(orignalRootNode);
Then, I have demoted the root:
newRootNode.add(originalRootNode);

hell all,
    I am working on a project in which I am using JPEG image
processing.
In this, I am first extracting the pixels using BuferredImage.getRGB()

In a Swing-application I am trying to create a JSpinner with a tooltip,
but the spinner's tooltip never shows up. (My platform is Java 1.4.2_05)
What is wrong with my code? Or is it a bug of JSpinner itself?
Below you find a stripped-down application for reproducing the problem.
