[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: SWT HTML browser component

["Hugo A. Garcia" <hugo.a.garcia@xxxxxxxxx>]

yes it is an XML, XHTML procesor that gives you a better document model 
than DOM or if you really have to use DOM then you can easily manipute 
it using JDOM. In addition, only really misbehaved HTML like that 
produced by Word is a problem. You can easily apply JTidy or NekoHTML or 
 TagSoup to clean up the HTML before creating a DOM.

Actually... this is what I have to do in my app. Haven't implement using 
 the Browser widget but I still have to go through the above step 
before display the documents I deal with since I have to manipulate the 
document before dsiplaying. Still building the rest of the GUI so when I 
get to integrating the Browser widget I can let you know.
