Any ideas on this one?? textpane weird thing

Question

I need to search through the document in a jTextPane and color certain words...I had it working but it skipped a character on every new line. I searched and found this, http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=31&thread=42144 but it does not help with a solution. Can someone please help.
          StringTokenizer sT = new StringTokenizer( textArea.getText() );
               int numberOfTokens = sT.countTokens();
     int startpos = 0;
          for( int j = 0; j < numberOfTokens; j++ )
                    //System.out.println("After For Loop");
                    String token = sT.nextToken();
                    if( token.equalsIgnoreCase( "test" ) )
                         //System.out.println("in if loop");
                         //System.out.println(token);
                         textArea.select( textArea.getText().indexOf( token,startpos ), ( textArea.getText().indexOf( token,startpos ) + token.length() ) );
int start = textArea.getSelectionStart();//textArea.getText().indexOf("test",startpos);
int end = textArea.getSelectionEnd();//start + 3;//
startpos = start+1;
System.out.println("after start,end "+start+" "+end);
if (start != end)
MutableAttributeSet attr = new SimpleAttributeSet();
StyleConstants.setForeground(attr, Color.red);
doc.setCharacterAttributes(start, end-start, attr, true);
textArea.requestFocus();

Here's an idea that should work...
int start = textArea.getSelectionStart();//textArea.getText().indexOf("test",startpos);
int end = textArea.getSelectionEnd();//start + 3;//
// CHANGE
// right here, check if you've crossed a newline
// if you have, update startpos, and subtract 1 character
while (int x = textArea.getText().substring(startpos,start).indexOf('\n')!=-1) // there is a newline character
startpos = x + 1;
start -= 1;
startpos = start+1;
that should fix it
