Problematic tags displaying HTML in Java

Question

Hi again,

I have the following tag included in my HTML which causes the JEditorPane not to show the HTML output.

<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

Not so much a big deal but anyone know why this would happen?

Cannot find too much documentation on this - best I came up with was someone having a go a few years ago to see what was supported on retro virus site.

At the minute I'm doing a simple find replace on the string which is not good - are there any better ways? I've seen a lot of people saying that RegEx is no good.

Answer 1

RegEx is not good for parsing the full HTML document. But in this case, I don't find any problem going with that.

Regarding your former question, I really don't have no idea.
