Allow java programs to be executed from a web-browser since I am using a jar to do some text printing

I've set up a kiosk using Ubuntu 12.04, and I'd like to have it autologin after a user logs out or if the screen locks, in case someone manages to get back to lightdm or tries to login to the non-kiosk account after a reboot.

I'm currently looking into building a kiosk running linux. Here's what I need it to do:
Run Apache, PHP, and MySQL
Launch a web browser in full screen mode (loads local content hosted by Apache)
Auto-login to 'kiosk' user
If they need to configure wireless/wired, they can use a key command to quit the web browser, launch the wireless/wired config, and then relaunch the full screen browser.
I'm trying to set up an Ubuntu 12.04 machine as a kiosk and I would like it, on boot, to automatically log in as my kiosk user "kiosk", and start the appropriate display manager, in this case blackbox.
I have configured /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf as in this question and have an appropriate /usr/share/xsessions/blackbox.desktop to launch blackbox.
I managed to get initial autologin by using the db
