utilities>global options>text area>selection single imac g5 10.4

I'm having problem with selecting data in a document with
the cursor. The selected data is comming up with a dark
blue back ground and the text can not be read.

When I do
utilities>global options>text area>selection single

the swatch shows a dark blue color and
when I try to change the color to a lighter
see through color like white or pastel blue then OK
the text area panel comes back with white
in the swatch. I press apply then OK.

The selection in the document is still dark blue
if I then do
utilities>global options>text area>selection single

the swatch has reverted to dard blue.

This problem started two days ago after the Apple store
tech remove a jammed cd and reinstalled imac g5 osx 10.4,
and I installed all Apple updates, which included a new version
JAVA. I downloaded jedit4.3pre9install.dmg and the probem started
occuring. I need advice on where to find a solution as I've
spent two days trying and have had no luck.


thanks

In "~/.jedit/>properties"
using the text editor, I changed
/Users/eda/.jedit/settings-backup/properties~1~:72: view.selectionColor=\#000080
to
/Users/eda/.jedit/settings-backup/properties~1~:72: view.selectionColor=\#ccffff
and saved.

This seems to solved my problem.

Thanks
