JTextPane and HTML rendering

Question

HAi
I have a web page with JApplet in it.
I need to get a HTML page from server and display it. I wish to use either JEditorPane or JTextPane.
The applet gets the file line by line from the server. I need to append the line by line to the component.
(i need to do some mappings before displaying, thats why i need to get text in parts.)
I tried to append line by line to JTextPane. But Pane is treating as text file. The tags are not getting recognised. Instead whole of the file is being displayed along with tags.
Is there any way by which i can append the file line by line with the tags being interpreted as they should be.
Anticipating an early reply
With thanks and regards

Hello,
You must initialize correctly your JTextPane like this:
javax.swing.text.html.HTMLEditorKit htmlEditorKit = new javax.swing.text.html.HTMLEditorKit();
javax.swing.text.html.HTMLDocument htmlDoc = (javax.swing.text.html.HTMLDocument)htmlEditorKit.createDefaultDocument();
setEditorKit(htmlEditorKit);
setDocument(htmlDoc);
setEditable(true);
setContentType("text/html");
