I’m trying to get a JLabel to display new line characters by using HTML

  • 0

I’m trying to get a JLabel to display new line characters by using HTML tags. But the text I want is obtained from a method. Here’s the line of code:

myLabel.setText("<html><pre>myCart.toString()</pre></html>");

But, this literally sets the text of the label to myCart.toString(), not to the String that is returned by the method. Is there a way around this?

    Do you mean?

    myLabel.setText("<html><pre>" + myCart.toString() + "</pre></html>");

    or just:

    myLabel.setText("<html><pre>" + myCart + "</pre></html>");

    since toString() will be called implicitly.
