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.
