Customizing Internet Explorer

by john.verchota . Updated 23 years, 2 months ago

I am just learning Java.
I would like to write a Java applet(?) that can be invoked by my own custom button on an IE toolbar. It’s purpose would be to paste pre-defined text into the current location on a data entry field on the current page.
Based upon what I have seen in various freeware, I believe this can be done.

But I do not know where to find the IE documentation on how to do this, particularly in Java. A sample of similar code would be great.

If you have experience in this, please post an answer including the exact URL(s) to doc and/or sample code. Please do not post answers listing hardcopy books unless you have already attempted something like this & found that to be the only source of help.

I am expecting that thishas been done before & that it will be fairly easy given a sample of similar functionality.

Thank you.
