I'm using a jeditorpane to display a html-file. (jEditorPane1.setPage(page);)
Then I'm changing the html-file through java-code, and want to refresh the jeditorpane with the new html. But the setPage-method doesn't work. The problem is also descibed there:

Any ideas how to solve the problem?

Sorry, but that's impossible to use. i allways get "out of memory exceptions". Isn't there any possibility to get the jEditorPane updated..?

Hi,
i'm using the following code. It works for the first time, but not after the html-file has been changed:

File localFile = new File(htmlfile);
if(localFile.exists() && localFile.isFile()) {
String page = "file:///" + localFile.getAbsolutePath();
try {
this.jEditorPane1.setPage(page);
}
catch (Exception ee) {
}
}

I've got the solution, thanx to cjard from codeguru!
setpage takes a URL, of the document to show, yet you state that you are changing the document? shouldnt you be using the getDocument() method and implementing your changes?
Click to expand...

Despite i can't use getDocument() this hint gave me the clue.
Now i'm just loading a dummy file through setpage, before calling setpage again (this time with the file, which has been changed). That works...

But anyway. That can't be the best solution. Isn't there another one?
