A JAVA Web Browser Overview For this assignment, you will be creating a web browser in JAVA using SWING. The GUI interface for your web browser should be similar to the following example : The title of the JFrame should be “Java Web Browser” . You will create two “Boxes”. The first will contain the JLabel that says “Location” and the JTextField for the URL. The second will contain the JButtons with labels “back”, “forward”, “home” and “reload”. These two boxes should be contained inside of a JToolBar which is then places at the top of the screen. Below the JToolBar will be a JEditorPane. It will be of type HTML and should be set to non-editable. The JEditorPane will be scrollable. Your web browser should start on the page http://www.google.com The home button should take you to http://www.cnn.com Add a Launch/Go button next to the URL text field on the right side. When this button is pressed, you should be able to visit the URL entered. The forward and back buttons should behave exactly as they do in any other web browser. This means that the forward button should be disabled if there are not more pages in front of the one your are viewing. Similarly, the back button will be disabled if there are no more pages behind the one you are viewing. The reload button should use the build in JAVA command to reload a page Add a “search” text field to your program that will automatically perform a search using one of the major search engines (google, yahoo, etc.) Add icons to your home, back, forward, and reload buttons. Implement a “history” menu that stores every page visited. Make sure it does not store duplicates. For this, make a connection to MySQL database, create History table and store all the information like pageURL visited, date, and time. Application needs to be able to query the database table and then display the result. Implement a “view source” button that will display the HTML source code of the current page being viewed. Implement an Quit MenuItem to close the browser It would be nice if you can utilize MutliThreading concept to the application.
