MapServer Java?

[Bryan Scott]

Depends on what your actual requirements are, but some options are
1) JLabel and ImageIcon.  You can get Mapserver to just display an image 
and use imageicon to load the image from a url.  A bit of coding is 
required to achieve a workable solution, ie supporting interaction if 
you need to etc.
2) ****javax.swing.JEditorPane****. 
3) https://xhtmlrenderer.dev.java.net/

The basic premise was that an option is have a mapserver/apache web site 
and simply display that website in a JComponent that renders html.
