HTML in JLabel not displaying

JLabel label = new JLabel("<html><body>Hello world</body></html>");

nothing is displayed.

If I get rid of the tags, it shows plain text (as expected), so JLabel is definitely added and displayed in the window.

The same goes for:

JEditorPane jep = new JEditorPane("text/html", "<html><body>Hello world</body></html>");

Any ideas?

I am using java-6-openjdk with Eclipse. More details:

If you want to mix fonts or colors in the text, or if you want formatting such as multiple lines, you can use HTML. HTML formatting can be used in all Swing buttons, menu items, labels, tooltips, and tabbed panels, as well as in components such as trees and tables that use labels to render text.
