HTMl file

[serfster]

Is it possible to display an html file in a java application and if so, how? Don't ask why I need to do this, I just do!

Where woudl people be able see the html? To write a web page from java I just put the raw html as string literals.

I am trying to get something like a box that contains a web page to appear within a GUI application. Is this possible to code?

You can try this using JEditorPane

[Eranga]

That's the best option we have, if we want to interact with the web page, like URLs and so on. You can do it on a label too. Not not perfect at all.

hey Eranga,

i can open an html page using JEditorPane.
But what if i want to open an simple html page in a browser itself.

will Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer/iexplore.exe"+" help.html") ; serve the purpose????

/*help.html is the required html file which is stored in the same folder*/

Thanks in advance..

Did you read the documentation for exec?

[smartsubroto]

Hi Eranga,

No i haven't i only know that that exec is used to run application.Any way i solved my problem.

i use the following code:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd start help.html);
and its working fine..

Thanks alot for your concern..

[Eranga]

You said this is working fine?

I am new to this forum. Have developed in Java a few years ago. At the moment, I am not using Java seriously but am planning to. So, I see myself as a beginer but hope to be of help as I get back in the game.

Kind regards
Timo
