Yes, I know. But you don't dynamically change the browser display via that 2
way comm, like the applet in the URL I posted.

It would be a really neat feature, and wouldn't rely on java for displaying
the item states.

The page is drawn with HTML only, but the changes are initiated by java.
This would eliminate dependancy on java applets for display purposes.
Instead of a dozen applets on a page, you have only one.

I'm sorry, but I don't see how this related to the problem.
I already support full 2-way comm btw ECS and the applets.
