A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I wrote a simple web browser using the JEditorPane class.
When I viewed some sites, I detected that JEditorPane
displayed wrong colors. When I took a look at the style
sheets, I detected that the colors were given in three
instead  of six sedecimal digits, like
"background-color:#eee";, which is completely legal CSS and
should be expanded to #eeeeee; on 24 bit color systems.
Java does not expand #eee; to #eeeeee; but instead to
#000eee; which of course produces the wrong colors.

I believe that Swing simply uses AWT's
Color.decode(String)-Method to create the required Color object.

I've found out that Color.decode() doesn't handle
3-digit-color values as they may be used in CSS.


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Write a browser (source below)
2. Run it
3. load the page (source below)

Or:
1. Create a Color-Object.
2. Print it out.
3. Look at it's RGB values

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Expected result: light light gray background
Actual result: blue background

Interpretation:
Instead of expanding #eee to #eeeeee to generate the color
value, #eee is interpreted as #000eee;

Or:

System.out.println(Color.decode("#eee"));
expected result: java.awt.Color[r=238,g=238,b=238]
actual result: java.awt.Color[r=0,g=14,b=238]


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

corresponding 6 hex-digit Colors";
    }
}

CUSTOMER WORKAROUND :
There is no workaround for this possible, as one can't
change other site's stylesheets.


I think the bug can be fixed by changing
java.awt.Color.decode() to: (untested)

    /**
     * Converts a <code>String</code> to an integer and
returns the
     * specified opaque <code>Color</code>. This method
handles string
     * formats that are used to represent octal and
hexidecimal numbers.
     * @param      nm a <code>String</code> that represents
     *                            an opaque color as a
24-bit integer
     *                            or as a 12-bit sedecimal
integer #rgb
     * @return     the new <code>Color</code> object.
     * @see        java.lang.Integer#decode
     * @exception  NumberFormatException  if the specified
string cannot
     *                      be interpreted as a decimal,
     *                      octal, or hexidecimal integer.

     */
    public static Color decode(final String nm) throws
NumberFormatException {
        Integer intval;
        if (nm.startsWith("#") && nm.length() == 4) {
            intval = Integer.decode("#" + nm.charAt(1) +
nm.charAt(1) + nm.charAt(2) + nm.charAt(2) + nm.charAt(3) +

        } else {
