JTextPane woes...


I need to switch from JTextArea to JTextPane b/c need to change font color according to user input, but am running into all sorts of problems.. you can't specify a size in rows and columns like you can in JTextArea, setSize() is being ignored.. also why no append() method in JTextPane.. how do I achieve what append() method does... such complication simply b/c I need to change font color (JUST font color) according to user input... :(

(this is for an IM chat window... so on top window need to display users' ID with their message.. ID needs to be a diff. font color..
sounds simple.. but well, JTextPane making this very complicated..)

would very much appreciate some help..  thank you..
