I am looking for a way to integrate a webpage into my java swing based application. The page uses HTML and absolutely requires Javascript to be enabled to function properly, so I won't be able to use something like a JEditorPane.

I've heard rumors of a JWebPane, but can't find any documentation on the subject. I also have no ability to afford something like JxBrowser, even though that looks like something that would work perfectly for what I want to do.

Does anyone have any advice on how I could display a webpage in a Java app without dropping more than a grand?

Are you absolutely tied to Java and in particular the Java Swing library? – Hovercraft Full Of Eels Jun 02 '13 at 01:57
I'm not tied to swing, but I would need to be able to add whatever component could be used to a JPanel – Burke9077 Jun 02 '13 at 02:05
`"I'm not tied to swing, but I would need to be able to add whatever component could be used to a JPanel"` -- That sure sounds like Swing to me. – Hovercraft Full Of Eels Jun 02 '13 at 02:11
I meant it to mean that I could use AWT components as well, but I could have been clearer. This is a small-ish part of a much larger program that is already built, so I'm afraid I'm kind of stuck to Swing/Java. – Burke9077 Jun 02 '13 at 02:16
