Q: 

Can I define a view in eclipse which shows html files?

I wonder if there is a way to define a view in eclipse which can render and show html files or with other words a view which works like a browser! I mean a view for an eclipse plugin.

For example if I can define a browser based on org.eclipse.swt.browser and associate it to viewcontentprovider?

I don't want to open an html file within eclipse editor. I am writing an eclipse plugin and I want to open some html forms or xforms in a view instead of eclipse internal web browser or an external web browser.

+3  A: 

Just rightclick your html file in eclipse and select Open with -> Web Browser.

And this can be done programatically off course.

I am sorry, but I still don't understand what you are trying to do instead.
