Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing client-side Java content transformation is presented. A first client request is received at a gateway from a web client, and is transmitted from the gateway to a web server, and then the web page is received at the gateway from the web server. At the gateway, the web page is modified to request a content transformation application and is transmitted from the gateway to the web client. A request is received at the gateway for the content transformation application, and the gateway transmits the content transformation application to the client. The content transformation application is run on the client, wherein the content transformation application acquires the applet requested by the client and performs content translation on the applet, resulting in a content transformed applet, which is then run by the client.
