Weblets is an emerging technology for manipulating the live browser DOM
with Java to create compelling e-business applications.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



A Weblet in it's simplest form is a Java client program which uses the
client user interface facilities of a 5th generation browser to render and
control it's interface via standard W3C interfaces found in DOM Level 1,
DOM Level 2, and HTML 4.0. These browser interface facilities include UI
widgets, layout, accessibility, sound, and printing functions. Therefore,
the Weblet runtime does not rely upon the Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT)
nor the JFC.

The Weblet runtime is used to build java programs which run inside a
browser web page, or as stand alone applications. The Weblet runtime shall
run in JDK 1.1.6 and later Java virtual machines and shall provide
a consistent user API on all platforms. The Weblet environment shall be
dynamically reconfigurable and extensible
by means of a framework. This shall apply both to the Java component as
well as any possible native component of the Weblet runtime. Given the
reliance of the Weblet runtime upon the underlying facilities of rapidly
changing browser
technology, a Weblet environment provider must be able to update the
environment as quickly and as painlessly as possible for the user.
