Check here to see how to add CSS support to your JEditorPane. You will need an HTMLEditorKit.

I do not see why you would need JavaScript support for a JEditorPane. The basic use of it is to render Help pages written in HTML and CSS.

If you need to have the real McCoy embedded into your application, try the Lobo Java Web Browser. Lobo does JavaScript and CSS and is open source 100% Java.
