How to parse a CSS Stylesheet from a JApplet - PLEASE HELP!

Question

Hi all
This is not a "how to read a file" question!! Please read on
I have a JApplet embedded on an HTML page which uses a CSS Stylesheet to set the document's colors, fonts, etc. and I would like to apply the same font/color scheme to the applet, by reading from the same CSS file.
I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY read the file via URLConnection+BufferedReader... So all I have left to do is to parse the CSS file so as to be able to extract the parameters that I need.
Given this very simple test.css :
BODY {
background: red;
Would someone be kind enough to write up the code for how to read the BODY.background property? I mean by using the "proper" Java StyleSheet facilities as oposed to just parsing the file "manually". I think we need to use the StyleSheet class, maybe also HTMLDocument and some others, but I've been reading the Javadocs and I can't figure it out myself, so I hope you can help me out!
Thanks in advance.

You can try the following approach to get all of the elements in your html file and do whatever you want with the element you want:
try {
   ElementIterator it = new ElementIterator(doc);
   javax.swing.text.Element elem;
   while ((elem = it.next()) != null) {
      System.out.println(elem.getName() + " " + doc.getText(elem.getStartOffset(), elem.getEndOffset() - elem.getStartOffset()));
} catch (Exception e) {
   e.printStackTrace();
};o)
