Hi,

My name is Yu Bin, and I'm a master student of helsinki university of technology. Currently I'm working on my master thesis. I meet some problem and I hope that you can give me some suggestion :).

Actually I'm trying to do a special web proxy, which first downloading the whole web contents for rendering the web page when the proxy receives a request from client, and then the proxy will send contents back to client one by one. This looks dummy :P but it's only for testing in my thesis work.

My problem is that because I'm using firefox as the testing web browser, and I really need the proxy can work just the same as the function "save page as" in firefox. This means that I really need the proxy can predownload the whole rendering items the same as firefox does. So I think the best and simple way to do this is just to embed the "html parsing part of firefox" into my program.

I read some documents about firefox gecho engine, but it is huge code for me to understand it soon. Could you please tell me whether there is a simple way or whether there is a way to just use the html parse part or even the transfer part in my pprogram, in order to help my proxy for parsing html file and fetching all content items for rendering?

Thank you very much.
BR,
Yu Bin
