Hi,

  Allen Holub (a.k.a. Dr. Evil) wrote-up an article
titled "Create client-side user interfaces in HTML:
Make the JEditorPane useful" for Java World.

Allen writes:

HTML is a wonderful thing. It lets you lay out
complicated user interfaces with a minimum of fuss; it
does a great job of separating UI structure and layout
from business logic; it's easy to write; and it's easy
to maintain. Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT)/Swing
layout is, in contrast, annoyingly difficult to use.
You must modify (and recompile) code to change the
look of your screens, and the code for a trivial
layout is itself nontrivial, extending to many pages.
Wouldn't it be nice if you could specify your entire
client-side user interface in HTML?
