How connect an HTML page to a running Java Application?

Question

Hi,
Exists a way to connect an HTML page to a running Java Application?
the idea is, If we use SWT, the Browser widget have an instance of IE/Firefox attached to it, and we load local HTML pages inside, then i wish to have a way to bridge Java Application from HTML page. Then with that we can do follow JScript:
var javaApp = document.getJavaApplication(); //here is the trick
//below is like we do today with applets
var person = container.create("myapp.Person");
person.setName("Test");
container.save(person);its great if we can Have an attribute for object tag or anything to conect HTML page to Java Application.

I think that the better idea is to create a new mime type for that, maybe "application/x-java-connect-to-local-jvm", and use embed tag, to connect via plugin to a running JavaApp
example:
<embed type="application/x-java-connect-to-local-jvm" width="20" height="20" mainClass="mypackage.AppName"><br>
<script>
var javaApp = document.embeds[0];
function createPerson()
  var person = javaApp.getNew("mypackage.Person");
  person.setName("test");
  javaApp.save(person);
}The width and height, isnt necessary, but the view can be used to show red if connection failed and green for sucessfull connections, or maybe embed tag can have src to images for sucessfull and unsucessfull states.
That's the idea, there is a way to extend Java Plugin to achieve that?
any tip or idea or to achieve that, are welcome.
Thanks
