Add text to JTextPane with color

[PhQ]

Hey, how can I add text with a color in jEditorPane1. I have

    public void sM(String s, Color color){
    public void sM(String s, Color c){
        String text = jEditorPane1.getText();
        jEditorPane1.setForeground(c);
        jEditorPane1.setText(text + s + "\n");

    }

and when I do

        sM("Hi", Color.white);
        sM("Hi", Color.red);

the color stays red?

What is the type of your jEditorPane1?

Well, as a rule, JEditorPane should use some additional thing as Document to control its styles .
Here is an example
If that helps put (+1) for my rep. ;)

Read the JTextPane API and follow the link to the Swing tutorial on "Text Component Features" for a working example.

With my pr0 google skills I have learned how to do it :).
Thanks for your help.

    public void sM(String s, Color c) {

                // bad: instiantiates a new AttributeSet object on each call
        SimpleAttributeSet aset = new SimpleAttributeSet();
        StyleConstants.setForeground(aset, c);

        int len = jTextPane1.getText().length();
        jTextPane1.setCaretPosition(len); // place caret at the end (with no selection)
        jTextPane1.setCharacterAttributes(aset, false);
        jTextPane1.replaceSelection(s + "\n"); // there is no selection, so inserts at caret

    }

That was it :)
