| Summary: | Sometimes a standard HTML view on your J2EE-based (Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition) system doesn't offer a sophisticated enough user interface (UI). Based on the pattern described here, you can enhance such a Web interface with the Java Plug-in. The Java Plug-in lets you embed applets that consume XML documents and display the contained data in a particular way. These XML documents contain presentation data derived from servlets looking at your business logic tier. This lets your users access powerful UI components while still retaining a strong decoupling between the business logic and presentation tiers-without complicated firewall issues.
