Calling a Java method using javascript from within a JPanel

Question

I have a Java application which displays results on a JPanel. The results are displayed using HTML by using a JLabel.

Now I want to let the user interact with the local application by allowing local methods to be called when the user clicks on a link in that HTML document.

Is this possible?

displays results on a JPanel != results are displayed using HTML. You're doing one or the other, not both. — Ryan Stewart

@RyanStewart The OP is saying that is displayed using HTML, which is perfectly possible if he is writing html into a JLabel/JEditorPane and adding that to a JPanel. — BackSlash

To answer you question, then, it is possible, however you cannot use a JLabel, you need to insert a JavaFX component, and then you can set your class as a window variable on the DOM, and thus your methods can be called from JavaScript.

Have a look at this answer on this question. It looks like they are doing exactly what you want.
