JEditorPane timeout

[Tetsuo Suzuki]

Hey all,
What does it take to be more than a greenhorn? Anyway, I've got the following class. Unfortunately, every time I try and run it it gives me a connection timeout error. I looked in the java api docs but find nothing about timeouts related to the JEditorPane. Thanks much,
Tetsuo!
>> Code follows...

  
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Browser extends JFrame{
JTextField txtURL = new JTextField("http://hobbitwerk.brinkster.net/slashbeast/");
JButton btnGo = new JButton("GO-->");
JEditorPane browse = new JEditorPane();
JScrollPane scroller = new JScrollPane(browse);
public Browser(){
browse.setEditable(false);
JPanel nav = new JPanel();
BoxLayout navLayout = new BoxLayout(nav, BoxLayout.X_AXIS);
nav.setLayout(navLayout);
nav.add(txtURL);nav.add(btnGo);
JPanel content = new JPanel();
content.setLayout(new GridLayout(1,1));
content.add(scroller);
getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
getContentPane().add(nav, BorderLayout.NORTH);
getContentPane().add(content, BorderLayout.CENTER);
try{
browse.setPage("http://hobbitwerk.brinkster.net/slashbeast/");
}
catch(Exception e){
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
setVisible(true);
pack();
}
public static void main(String[] args){
new Browser();
}
}

hi,
Actually, you should expect getting timeout when you want to load URL page. The setPage method actually opens a connection to the page you specified.
if you put e.printStackTrace(); in the catch, you will get this:

You see, you got a socket error.

Okay, I was under the assumption that the setPage method would retrieve the content and display it in the JEditorPane...
