Hello everybody, I am working on the technology representing the information in form which adjusted to the perception of blind people. It is just as an addition to usual screen readers.
For a long time there was a rather big problem, it is a web browsing. My environment is implemented in Java but I was unable to get any web browser features.Any web surfing activity was possible only if you are using a fully functional browser, like Firefox, Chrome, etc. >From time to time I looked for any browser implementations in Java but everything what I got never looked interesting. The picture totally changed when I found javafx.scene.web. At a glance it looks like exactly what I need! The key feature which looks nice to me is a splitting a visualization and a background engine. I need exactly the engine which manages DOM, can execute JavaScript, sends all notifications and events, but don't take care about graphical representation. The description for WebEngine class says that it suits completely. OK, but I would like to ensure that JavaFX itself suits as well. Meaning, may I use WebEngine class without creating _*graphical*_ application? In other words, what should the execution environment for WebEngine be? There are two questions I would like to understand: 1. Should I create a full graphical application in JavaFX traditions to be able to use WebEngine? My application uses a speech feedback as a main way to bring information to users. If it is required that I should have a complete graphical scene for using WebEngine it would be bad news for me. 2. Do I understand correctly that JavaFX applications are able to be launched just in Java Virtual Machine? Meaning, they do not need a complete web browser, right? I found that javafx.scene.web using webkit and it is OK. I am asking that the user shouldn't need opening a web browser window and run JavaFX application in it, yes? Help me please! If these questions would be OK I would be able to significantly improve my environment! Thank you in advance! :)) -- Michael Pozhidaev. Tomsk, Russia.
