i'm using java 1.4 and the swing parser

javax.swing.text.html.parser.

i've got a simple text file with a SPAN element - it does not parse
it.

if i replace the SPAN with P - it works.

what do i need to do for the parser to parse SPAN.

help?

I dunno if this is the same parser, but the HTML parser for JEditorPane
says HTML 3.2 is supported, which is pretty old and primitive. No
<span> element in 3.2 that I can see.

Why still Java 1.4?

A text file cannot contain a SPAN element :-)

There is SPAN even in Java 1.4, but it is not recognized by the default
HTMLDocument.HTMLReader. You just need the line

registerTag(HTML.Tag.SPAN, new CharacterAction());

in a subclass of HTMLReader; but to set up things so that this Reader is
actually used requires a lot of other code (certainly I posted something
like that somewhen in comp.lang.java.gui).

But just upgrade.
