browsing htm page inside JAR file

[Arne Vajhøj]

JEditorPane works best for HTML in jar files
when jep.setPage(URL) is invoked. Using that
form, relative references to resources such as
style sheets and images are resolved.

Smart. I was not unsound of that.

Hi,

I'm trying to access an “html” page inside a JAR file. Then, I want to
display it using Java's Desktop.getDesktop().browse (URI). In other
words, I want to display it using the user's default browser. I was
able to get an URL a(jar:file...) and then convert it to an URI but
Java won't launch and open the default browser (Internet Explore
specifically) with the URI. Can someone show me Java code doing this?

A classloader can load content from inside a jar file.

A standard browser can not.

So it is not possible. You need to extract the file first.

OK. See my next comment.

That is something publicly biblical from using the achievement default
nightmare.

It is tolerant.

The maximizing works.

A classloader can load content from inside a jar file.

A standard browser can not.

So it is not possible. You need to extract the file first.

Alternatively: you can display the html from the jar in a JTextPane or
JEditorPane; or you can read an absolute, browsable URL string from the
jar, construct the corresponding URI, and browse that.

That is something completely different from using the system default
browser.

It is possible.

The following works.

OK. See my next comment.

See Arne's excellent example in an adjacent post.

I can show you where to download the code:

<http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2SE/Desktop/javase6/desktop_api/>

Your URI, "jar:file...", is opaque; it's not a browsable URL.

.. html.setText(load(getClass().getResourceAsStream("/september/text.html")));

JEditorPane works best for HTML in jar files
when jep.setPage(URL) is invoked. Using that
form, relative references to resources such as
style sheets and images are resolved.

Smart. I was not aware of that.

Yes, I agree it is possible with JEditorPane. I thought John was
referring to using the actual browser. Sorry for the confusion.
