Actually, this is probably more of what you meant.

Hi, 
How can you do roll over JButton with icon and text? 
Basically, the button has an icon and text, but no border, and it is flat 
How do you enable button border and raise the button on mouseover? 
 
i.e. Similar to firefox's buttons 
 
Thanks 
Jamie

Rolling over JButton with icon and text

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
