HTML rendering in Swing components

Y

Yar

Hello,

If I have a JLabel or a JTextEditor component with the following
caption
<html><img src=http://192.168.1.1/image.jpg></html>

is there any way I control the http connection that will do the loading
of the image from the webserver?
I would like to add a cookie for session tracking purposes to the
automatically created connection.

Is there like global static parameters, to do that?


Thank you
Yar

the src needs to be inside quotes to be valid HTML,

<html><img src='http://192.168.1.1/image.jpg'></html>

...and from memory, it needs a <body> element..

You can send parameters to the server inside the URL.

src='http://192.168.1.1/image.jpg?compression=9&size=800'

( I am not sure if that answers your question,
I am not entirely clear what you mean. )

Thanks Andrew,

What i was looking for was to override the standard behavior for
downloading the images from HTML based Swing Text components.

I found my answer: the ImageView class does the work. By overriding it
I can do what i want, and authenticating to the webserver if necessary,
inserting session tracking cookies if necessary.
Need also to override the HTMLEditorKit for it to return the correct
ImageView class
