In my pany, I am implementing a java based html browser. I found a lot of tools to generate plete browsers only in Swing which are looking like Mozilla. But I was not able to find a browser which supports JavaScript. The browser I will implement should execute JavaScript inside the HTML sides.

Do you know of a tool that supports this? Or do you know of a parser which pairs the javascript to something I can use inside the html browser?

I know that the eclipse plugins can handle javascript, but I can not use AWT in my project.

Thanks for your help.

You don't want to build this yourself. Fortunately, there are a number of open source javascript engines you might be able to adapt.

I'd look at Lobo. It sounds like just want you want. It has a HTML Renderer and parser, and some support for Javascript. If it's missing a feature of Javascript that you need, it seems like it would easier to contribute to Lobo, instead of reinventing the wheel.

Good God, why?

That said, this page at java discusses some options; you could search it more extensively.
