Hello,
This is my first post to this mailing list.
I was playing around with HTML + text labels on Swing widgets
today. I noticed that the sniff test for HTML is defined by this
static method: javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicHTML.isHTMLString(String)
The test is quite strict. Basically, the string must start with
"<html>" -- no whitespace allowed, but it is case insensitive.
If there is a good reason for this strictness, please let me
know. Otherwise, I would like to submit a small patch (+ test) to
improve this static method to be more forgiving. If OK, please
also advise about JDK7u vs JDK8. (I don't know if a [simple]
patch can be applied to both releases easily.)
In Perl regex parlance, something like: m/\s*<html\s*>/i
Of course, my solution probably wouldn't use a regex, nor Perl. =)
Please share you thoughts.
Thanks,
Kevin Connor ARPE
