U'd be better off just using html instead of Java, i don't know how to make it depressed, but i'd guess just switch the bevel and emboss around to an inner emboss instead of an inner bevel

to make something pseudo-depressed just switch the light source from the upper left to the lower right.

If you didn't know this already, we generally see something as bumping out if it is lighter on the upper left and darker on the lower right. (take the kirupaforum buttons for example) so if you want to pseudo-depress them just switch the highlighting and shading. Hopefully that helps
