public class XSLTProcessorApplet

extends java.applet.Applet

Provides applet host for the XSLT processor. To perform transformations on an HTML client:

1. Use an <applet> tag to embed this applet in the HTML client.
2. Use the DocumentURL and StyleURL PARAM tags or the setDocumentURL(java.lang.String) and setStyleURL(java.lang.String) methods to specify the XML source document and XSL stylesheet.
3. Call the getHtmlText() method (or one of the transformToHtml() methods) to perform the transformation and return the result as a String.

init

public void init()

Standard applet initialization.

Overrides:

init in class java.applet.Applet

start

public void start()

Automatically called when the HTML client containing the applet loads. This method starts execution of the applet thread.

Overrides:

start in class java.applet.Applet

paint

public void paint(java.awt.Graphics g)

Do not call; this applet contains no UI or visual components.

Overrides:

paint in class java.awt.Container

stop

public void stop()

Parameters:

urlString - valid URL string for XML document.

freeCache

public void freeCache()

The processor keeps a cache of the source and style trees, so call this method if they have changed or you want to do garbage collection.
