In short: no; HTML 3 only, before CSS.
The “HTML” supported by JLabel, JButton, etc, is things like
<font color="" face="" />and<a href="#">to provide inline styling of label textual content.To indicate that an HTML supporting component contains HTML, the string value must be wrapped in
"<html></html>"; this is for backward compatibility with existing code. For example:Further information can be seen here: http://www.apl.jhu.edu/~hall/java/Swing-Tutorial/Swing-Tutorial-JLabel.html and documentation here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/html.html
JLabel does not provide an implementation of the CSS 2.x visual formatting model, so HTML4 style=”” attributes and CSS box formatting will not work. If you want rich HTML formatting support then you’ll need to use a web-browser component.
