Java Servlet Filter that intercepts all HTML traffic

Question

What method/class from a java servlet filter can I use to intercept/modify all HTML traffic before it get's displayed by the any web browser? I have tried searching for this online but all I got was a bunch of info about how a servlet filter can intercept a servlet, a JSP or a Static File but nothing about intercepting all HTML traffic before a browser sees it.

You can create a chain of filters. The last filter in the chain will be executed right before the response is sent back.

What is the use of filter and chain in servlet?
