applet invoke IE

[Clara Hall]

Hi,
My applet connects to a servlet and gets the reply. Now, I need to use the IE to display the information the applet got from the servlet, anybody knows how to do it? Thank you very much.

I need some more information before I can answer that. Are you using the applet to display the information, or do want it displayed in the html portion of the page? If you are using the applet, it should be a simple matter of updating the component you are using to display the information and then calling the repaint() method. The html way would be a bit more difficult, and should probably be addressed by someone more knowledgeable than I.

Thank you for your message.
When my applet starts, it will open a new frame. In the frame is a split pane. The left side is a JTree and the right side is JTextPane. Some files I got from the server are in the format of MS word, MS ppt, etc. So I need to use IE to display these files. While the request is sent out from the applet. Thank you.
