WebEngine (JavaFX 2.2)

java.lang.Object
- javafx.scene.web.WebEngine

public final class WebEngine
extends java.lang.Object

WebEngine is a non-visual object capable of managing one Web page at a time. It loads Web pages, creates their document models, applies styles as necessary, and runs JavaScript on pages. It provides access to the document model of the current page, and enables two-way communication between a Java application and JavaScript code of the page.

Loading Web Pages

The WebEngine class provides two ways to load content into a WebEngine object:

From an arbitrary URL using the load(java.lang.String) method. This method uses the java.net package for network access and protocol handling.
From an in-memory String using the loadContent(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) and loadContent(java.lang.String) methods.

Loading always happens on a background thread. Methods that initiate loading return immediately after scheduling a background job. To track progress and/or cancel a job, use the Worker instance available from the getLoadWorker() method.

The following example changes the stage title when loading completes successfully:


import javafx.concurrent.Worker.State;
final Stage stage;
webEngine.getLoadWorker().stateProperty().addListener(
        new ChangeListener<State>() {
            public void changed(ObservableValue ov, State oldState, State newState) {
                if (newState == State.SUCCEEDED) {
                    stage.setTitle(webEngine.getLocation());
                }
            }
        });
webEngine.load("http://javafx.com");

User Interface Callbacks

A number of user interface callbacks may be registered with a WebEngine object. These callbacks are invoked when a script running on the page requests a user interface operation to be performed, for example, opens a popup window or changes status text. A WebEngine object cannot handle such requests internally, so it passes the request to the corresponding callbacks. If no callback is defined for a specific operation, the request is silently ignored.

The table below shows JavaScript user interface methods and properties with their corresponding WebEngine callbacks:

JavaScript method/property	WebEngine callback
`window.alert()`	`onAlert`
`window.confirm()`	`confirmHandler`
`window.open()`	`createPopupHandler`
`window.open()` and `window.close()`	`onVisibilityChanged`
`window.prompt()`	`promptHandler`
Setting `window.status`	`onStatusChanged`
Setting any of the following: `window.innerWidth`, `window.innerHeight`, `window.outerWidth`, `window.outerHeight`, `window.screenX`, `window.screenY`, `window.screenLeft`, `window.screenTop`	`onResized`

The following example shows a callback that resizes a browser window:


Stage stage;
webEngine.setOnResized(
        new EventHandler<WebEvent<Rectangle2D>>() {
            public void handle(WebEvent<Rectangle2D> ev) {
                Rectangle2D r = ev.getData();
                stage.setWidth(r.getWidth());
                stage.setHeight(r.getHeight());
            }
        });

Access to Document Model

The WebEngine objects create and manage a Document Object Model (DOM) for their Web pages. The model can be accessed and modified using Java DOM Core classes. The getDocument() method provides access to the root of the model. Additionally DOM Event specification is supported to define event handlers in Java code.

The following example attaches a Java event listener to an element of a Web page. Clicking on the element causes the application to exit:


EventListener listener = new EventListener() {
    public void handleEvent(Event ev) {
        Platform.exit();
    }
};

Document doc = webEngine.getDocument();
Element el = doc.getElementById("exit-app");
((EventTarget) el).addEventListener("click", listener, false);

Evaluating JavaScript expressions

It is possible to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of the current page using the executeScript(java.lang.String) method. For example:


webEngine.executeScript("history.back()");

The execution result is returned to the caller, as described in the next section.

Mapping JavaScript values to Java objects

JavaScript values are represented using the obvious Java classes: null becomes Java null; a boolean becomes a java.lang.Boolean; and a string becomes a java.lang.String. A number can be java.lang.Double or a java.lang.Integer, depending. The undefined value maps to a specific unique String object whose value is "undefined".

If the result is a JavaScript object, it is wrapped as an instance of the JSObject class. (As a special case, if the JavaScript object is a JavaRuntimeObject as discussed in the next section, then the original Java object is extracted instead.) The JSObject class is a proxy that provides access to methods and properties of its underlying JavaScript object. The most commonly used JSObject methods are getMember (to read a named property), setMember (to set or define a property), and call (to call a function-valued property).

A DOM Node is mapped to an object that both extends JSObject and implements the appropriate DOM interfaces. To get a JSObject object for a Node just do a cast:

 JSObject jdoc = (JSObject) webEngine.getDocument();

In some cases the context provides a specific Java type that guides the conversion. For example if setting a Java String field from a JavaScript expression, then the JavaScript value is converted to a string.

Mapping Java objects to JavaScript values

The arguments of the JSObject methods setMember and call pass Java objects to the JavaScript environment. This is roughly the inverse of the JavaScript-to-Java mapping described above: Java String, Number, or Boolean objects are converted to the obvious JavaScript values. A JSObject object is converted to the original wrapped JavaScript object. Otherwise a JavaRuntimeObject is created. This is a JavaScript object that acts as a proxy for the Java object, in that accessing properties of the JavaRuntimeObject causes the Java field or method with the same name to be accessed.

Calling back to Java from JavaScript

The JSObject.setMember method is useful to enable upcalls from JavaScript into Java code, as illustrated by the following example. The Java code establishes a new JavaScript object named app. This object has one public member, the method exit.


public class JavaApplication {
    public void exit() {
        Platform.exit();
    }
}
...
JSObject window = (JSObject) webEngine.executeScript("window");
window.setMember("app", new JavaApplication());

You can then refer to the object and the method from your HTML page:


<a href="" onclick="app.exit()">Click here to exit application</a>

When a user clicks the link the application is closed.

If there are multiple Java methods with the given name, then the engine selects one matching the number of parameters in the call. (Varargs are not handled.) An unspecified one is chosen if there are multiple ones with the correct number of parameters.

You can pick a specific overloaded method by listing the parameter types in an extended method name, which has the form "method_name(param_type1,...,param_typen)". Typically you'd write the JavaScript expression:

 receiver["method_name(param_type1,...,param_typeN)"](arg1,...,argN)

Threading

WebEngine objects must be created and accessed solely from the JavaFX Application thread. This rule also applies to any DOM and JavaScript objects obtained from the WebEngine object.

  - loadContent
```

  - executeScript
```
public java.lang.Object executeScript(java.lang.String script)
```
    Executes a script in the context of the current page.
    Returns:
    execution result, converted to a Java object using the following rules:
    
    JavaScript Int32 is converted to java.lang.Integer
    Other JavaScript numbers to java.lang.Double
    JavaScript string to java.lang.String
    JavaScript boolean to java.lang.Boolean
    JavaScript null to null
    Most JavaScript objects get wrapped as netscape.javascript.JSObject
    JavaScript JSNode objects get mapped to instances of netscape.javascript.JSObject, that also implement org.w3c.dom.Node
    A special case is the JavaScript class JavaRuntimeObject which is used to wrap a Java object as a JavaScript value - in this case we just extract the original Java value.
