Hi,
I am planing to create an Applet plugin for WebEngine and in order to do
so I need more information on the appropriate way to do this. What I
basically want to do is to insert a JavaFX custom control where there
are an Applet or Object html tag. As WebEngine internals isn't well
documented I write to this list in hope of getting some hints on how to
do this.
I have thought of an "ugly" way to do this by intercepting the download
and replacing the tags with empty spaces that I then can render upon.
I am looking for something similar to this pseudocode:
for each item in DOM
if item tag is "applet" or "object"
item.node = new MyPlugin(item)
Or perhaps something like:
web.setTagRenderer("applet", myPluginFactory)
web.setTagRenderer("object", myPluginFactory)
The latter may be more capable to do things like intercept JavaScript
putting code into the DOM. Also it doesn't introduce a redundant loop
outside of the engine.
