如何处理Java小程序网页的DOM

Question

I'd like to modify the value of a hidden <input> tag in my applet. But I don't know how to manipulate DOM elements.

I've found the article "Manipulating DOM of Applet's Web Page" in official Java SE tutorial. But when I try the following code : Class c = Class.forName("com.sun.java.browser.plugin2.DOM"); I get a ClassNotFoundException .

Is the Java Common DOM API is installed with JDK ? It only supports special browsers ? Or we should use an other API ?

I'm using JDK 7, browser Google Chrome and Eclipse for programming.

Best regards

You are better off abstracting the DOM manipulation out to JS, since there are JS APIs that take cross-browser differences into account. Then have the applet call the generic JS methods.
