I have write a code to find a word in JTextPane. Problem here is when I enter a search word and click on search button it was highlight the all the occurrence of the given search word. I want to Highlight the first occurrence of the word then click on search button shows second occurrence of the way like that. Another one is it was not unHighlight the after search complete when click on text pane.
My code:
public class FindAWord extends javax.swing.JFrame {
public static void main(String args[]) {
/* Set the Nimbus look and feel */
// <editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed"
// desc=" Look and feel setting code (optional) ">
/*

* default look and feel. For details see

If you need just to highlight one word you don't need all the addHighlight() and removeHighlight() calls.
Just figure out the word's offset (and length) and use setSelectionStart()/setSelectionEnd() method of the JTextPane passing the word start and start + length
UPDATE as requested the working code
