Yeah.. but. Where do you want the source code to be displayed ? Do you have a source code pane or something like that, or you just want HTML attributes to be applied to you text ?
Il give you some random examples of HTML manipulation.. but I don't clearly see what you want to do :
//set the appropriate EditorKit for JTextPane by determining its content type
JTextPane tpa = new JTextPane();
tpa.setContentType("text/html");
//get a reference to the tpaDefault document
HTMLDocument htmDoc = (HTMLDocument) tpa.getDocument();
//get a referene to HTMLEditorKit
HTLMEditorKit htmKit = (HTMLEditorKit) tpa.getEditorKit();
//Get selected text from JTextPane
String strSelText = JTextPane.getSelectedText();
//Get selection start and end positions
int intStartPos = JTextPane.getSelectionStart();
int intEndPos = JTextPane.getSelectionEnd();
//Calculate selection length
int intSelLength = intEndPos - intStartPos;
//Remove selection from HTMLDocument
htmDoc.remove(intStartPos, intSelLength);
//HTML String to insert
String strToInsert = "<font face="Verdana" size="3" color="red">" + strSelText + "</font>";
//Insert new formated HTML content using HTMLEditorKit
htmKit.insertHTML(htmDoc,strToInsert,intStartPos, 0,0, HTML.Tag.FONT);  That's more or less how it works.
Hope it helps,
