How to let the content in JComboBox display in the center?

Question

Currently I have this JComboBox, how can I get to center the content inside it?

String[] strs = new String[]{"15158133110", "15158133124", "15158133458"};
JComboBox com = new JComboBox(strs);

You need to create a Renderer then apply it to the JComboBox

DefaultListCellRenderer dlcr = new DefaultListCellRenderer(); 
dlcr.setHorizontalAlignment(DefaultListCellRenderer.CENTER); 
com.setRenderer(dlcr);

also import this,

import javax.swing.DefaultListCellRenderer;

I'm glad you got to that before I (foolishly) suggested HTML formatting. Now I can pretend I was never going to say that. ;) – Andrew Thompson Aug 23 '12 at 03:57

I'd go further than 'much simpler'. Your answer is better classified as 'correct approach'. HTML formatting is a hack. – Andrew Thompson Aug 23 '12 at 04:19
