naveen · Mar 21, 2006

hai all
I am working in a project in whihc i need to modify the dom of a
webpage and reload the page with modified dom.
so for this i thought of working with JSObject and with applet
commnication
As a sample here is the code i am working i am getting the exception as
fallows
please help me out how to modify it

HTML part
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<applet id="myapplet" width="300" height="500" code ="jsobject.class"
codebase=".">
<param name="InitialMode" value="Normal">
</applet>
<script>
function f()
{
alert ("calling this frunction from java script via java ");
}
</script>

<BODY>
<input type="button" value ="from js to java"
onclick="document.myapplet.doitt()">
</BODY>
</HTML>

JAVA PART

import java.applet.*;
import netscape.javascript.*;
public class jsobject extends Applet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

public void init()
{
JSObject win = JSObject.getWindow(this);
JSObject doc = (JSObject) win.getMember("document");
JSObject loc = (JSObject) doc.getMember("location");

String s = (String) loc.getMember("href"); //
document.location.href
win.call("f", null); ; }
}

Here is the exception

netscape.javascript.JSException
at netscape.javascript.JSObject.getWindow(JSObject.java:144)
at jsobject.init(jsobject.java:15)
at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(Unknown Source)

hai all

'hai' is just a 'kewl' way to say 'hi' or 'hello', I would recommend
either of the latter.

I am working in a project in whihc i need to modify the dom of a
webpage and reload the page with modified dom. ....
please help me out how to modify it

HTML part
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<applet id="myapplet" width="300" height="500" code ="jsobject.class"
codebase=".">

This represent invalid HTML, an applet element is only valid when
enclosed
by a 'body' element. You should make a static HTML page of all pages
that are created using JS and check them in the HTML validator at W3C.
....

import java.applet.*;
import netscape.javascript.*;
public class jsobject extends Applet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

public void init()
{

try {

JSObject win = JSObject.getWindow(this);
JSObject doc = (JSObject) win.getMember("document");
JSObject loc = (JSObject) doc.getMember("location");

String s = (String) loc.getMember("href"); //
document.location.href
win.call("f", null); ;

} catch(JSException jse) {
jse.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

} ....

So how can i modify this error

1. Validate both the HTML this all occurs in, as well as any
HTML you intend to write using JS.
2. Catch those exceptions (as shown above, beginning example)
so that you as the programmer regain control and can then DO
something about them (exactly what to do, is the next question)
3. Post the URL of your current broken page - if it is not uploaded,
upload it. (There were a dozen more questions I could ask, but they
are all answered by the looking at your web page.)
4. Study this document carefully..

Be lazy and validate your HTML and CSS before bashing your head trying
to figure out why it does not work.

Hi,
I've got the same error

Exception netscape.javascript.JSObject.getWindow(JSObject.java:144) appears while I execute my applet from eclipse IDE.
In case running my applet from browser it works fine.

Could you please provide me with some solution how to solve this issue. It's very important to run this applet from eclipse.

Thanks!
