      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.6.0_10-beta"
      Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-beta-b25)

      ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      When the background color of an HTML document is set to #0099ff and text is set to white in JEditorPane and text is selected, it is impossible to see what text is currently selected.


      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      Run the Main class presented and select some text in the frame. Verify the text is selected by pressing a key.


      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      Expected to be able to tell what text was selected.
      ACTUAL -
      Only the cursor moves and it is impossible to determine where the selection started from.

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.

      JFrame frame = new JFrame();
      frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
      JEditorPane pane = new JEditorPane("text/html", "<body style=\"background: #0099ff; color: white\">What is selected and what is not?!?</body>");
      frame.getContentPane().add(pane);
      frame.setSize(200, 200);
      frame.setVisible(true);
      }
