Answer 2

In the programmer guide you can see few example like this:

JFrame frame = new JFrame();
   frame.setSize(800, 600);
   frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
   Browser browser = new Browser();
   frame.getContentPane().add(browser);
   frame.setVisible(true);

   // wait until the browser is ready to work
   browser.waitReady();

You'll get better results if you edit your question to include details of what you've tried. Ask for help to implement one of those specific solutions. Use HTML "pre" tags to wrap your code snippets, indent 3 spaces for syntax highlighting.

Show some of your code. Then we would be happy to help you. Few people use that functionality on a daily basis, so even those who have done it would not remember immediately how they did it, but might be reminded by seeing what you've got so far.

Tell us what you want to accomplish. You might get suggestions to do it a different way, which you might not like, but it will help us to remember the problem we were trying to solve when we last encountered the software you're asking about.
