Dear mozilla people,

We are developing an application, which display dynamic html-content on a
digital sinage screen.

What will have to be done are the following steps:

1. Get the content to be displayed (pure html with little css)
2. Render the content to a 720x576 buffer (rgb or argb)
3. Memcopy this buffer to the SDI card.

Is Gecko / Mozilla a possible solution for us? Would it be fast enough to
render something like this - 25 times a second???:

---------START HERE----------
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
  <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
 http-equiv="content-type">
  <title></title>
</head>
<body>
<big><big>13:56&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Weather: cloudy<br>
<small style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;">This
is a demonstration string...</small></big></big>
</body>
</html>
----------END HERE-----------

In our case embedding would mean:
1. Only use html/css rendering features - to keep it simple and small
2. The faster it renders, the better it is
3. The application shall not show a browser window, but render a buffer
containing the rendered content.

Do you have any suggestions/ideas?
Any comments welcome!

Best regards and thank you
Johann
