A quick note: a problem with Java in applets is that really needs to be 1.1 to ensure browser compatibility, AFAIK
In fact the Ekit applet requires Swing, which hasn't been integrated into Netscape's Java. (Not sure about MSIE.)
However, the Ekit demo contains Javascript for using the Java plug-in... and I must say, this applet looks very, very nice! I suppose it just uses Swing to do the fancy work (I haven't checked yet). I'm running it on Linux and there appears to be a problem with the control characters like arrows and the "enter" key, but that can be dealt with.
I used to do Java (and Windows) exclusively. Applets were fun except when they crashed (and how they crashed!), so I didn't make many applets. But now that Java works on a more stable platform, there could be some opportunity here!
Another thing I looked at yesterday is the possibility of using Plugger, a Netscape plugin that lets you use shell commands as plugins.

"Ekit is a program & applet that uses the Java 2 libraries to create an HTML editor. The Ekit standalone also allows for HTML to be loaded and saved, as well as serialized and saved as an RTF. It is currently a beta, though many features work fine."
Any java gurus out there? :-)
