IE by itself should be able to call the applet by name in the html page. Batik would need to be running inside the applet.

So as a full Java Application (well even as an Applet) you can open a socket back to the hosting server and through that update the SVG any way you want (one respondent mentioned sending pieces of JavaScript to execute). However I don't know of a good way to get IE to talk with Batik. It should be possible to have IE talk with the Server when then updates Batik but this is a bit roundabout. BTW just because I don't know of a good way to get IE talking with Batik doesn't mean there isn't one, I don't know that much about what IE/Windows/Java WebStart offers for this sort of integration. BTW If you left Batik as an Applet I believe it is fairly straightforward to do all of the above (of course you may need to sign it or something).
