I need to have a button whose text is underlined and the only way I could find to do this in Java was to use and tags but when I do this, it causes the button to take up as much room as is left in the JToolBar even though the text is short and it should only take up a small amount of space. Here is how I create the the Button.
String buttonText = new String("<html><u>Lesson Plans</u><html>");
JButton lessonButton = new JButton(buttonText);
toolBar.add(lessonButton);
If I remove the tags then it takes up the right amount of space but if I have them in there is takes up the entire toolBar. Anyone know what's going on?
