I’m using a JOptionPane to display some product information and need to add some links to web pages.
I’ve figured out that you can use a JLabel containing html, so I have included an <a href> link. The link shows up blue and underlined in the dialog, however it is not clickable.
For example, this should also work:
public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "<html><a href=\"http://google.com/\">a link</a></html>");
}
How do I get clickable links within a JOptionPane?
Thanks, Paul.
EDIT – eg solution
public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable
{
// for copying style
JLabel label = new JLabel();
Font font = label.getFont();
// create some css from the label's font
StringBuffer style = new StringBuffer("font-family:" + font.getFamily() + ";");
style.append("font-weight:" + (font.isBold() ? "bold" : "normal") + ";");
style.append("font-size:" + font.getSize() + "pt;");
// html content
JEditorPane ep = new JEditorPane("text/html", "<html><body style=\"" + style + "\">" //
+ "some text, and <a href=\"http://google.com/\">a link</a>" //
+ "</body></html>");
// handle link events
ep.addHyperlinkListener(new HyperlinkListener()
{
@Override
public void hyperlinkUpdate(HyperlinkEvent e)
{
if (e.getEventType().equals(HyperlinkEvent.EventType.ACTIVATED))
Desktop.getDesktop().browse(e.getURL().toString()); // roll your own link launcher or use Desktop if J6+
}
});
ep.setEditable(false);
ep.setBackground(label.getBackground());
// show
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, ep);
}
