Subject: Applet needs full browser pane w/ DOM access.
Posted By: Philibuster Post Date: 5/26/2006 9:45:00 AM
My swing applet needs to display a pane within an overall GUI layout showing a web browser view.  My applet needs to have access to the underlying browser's DOM for any pages loaded (URL/HTML) loaded into the pane.  Note: using a JEditorPane is not adequate (doesn't support all tags/javascript etc.) - I need an instance of the underlying web browser (MSIE, Firefox,  etc.) running within the GUI pane (like an <iframe> in HTML).  Also, I don't want to use any ActiveX controls (webbrowser), but I need equivalent functionality otherwise.

How would I do this?

The solution to this requirement appears to be the JDesktop Integration Components (JDIC) at jdic.dev.java.net.  This collection of Java packages and tools contains a cross-platform native browser.  JDIC has several problems (initialization, container, mixing light-weight with awt components, etc.) that need work-arounds; however, you may find it useful.
