Constructor for class Font:
(http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/Font.html)

Font(String name, int style, int size)

what about color? how to set Font Color?

I'm working w/JTextArea, now realized need to use JTextPane b/c will need diff. font colors depending on user input.. (nothing fancy, no images, no HTML (at least I don't think I need to do w/html..) all font attr's will remain constant, only font color will change.. (also would like if user inputs url for it to be a link..)

I have just spent entire evening looking this up... is not that simple....;) I'm going a bit dizzy... ;)

thank you for any help...
