Border on a JEditorPane

Question

Hi there,
I'm trying to create a LineBorder on a JScrollPane, which I want to be in the center of a JPanel, the latter having no other components added.
Please could someone tell me how to do this. I can do this with an EmptyBorder and MatteBorder, but cannot do this with other borders. How can I?
Currently I have done it by adding an Empty/MatteBorder to the JScrollPane, which I add to the center of a JPanel. This works but looks silly. Is the proper way to create an empty border for the JPanel, then add the JScrollPane to that - because if it is, when I try it the JScrollPane resizes itself to a ridiculously small size in the middle of the JPanel - which I don't want.
Please could you help because - well.. because that'd be great.
Thanks again guys..
Edward.
