A separate object that is only used to launch a fresh XmlHttp object without IE getting in the way? I've been experimenting with things like that, but an unfortunate CVS Merge blew my local source tree, so I don't know what I ended up with :-/ I suspect that when the webbrowser gets a hold of the XmlHttp object, it will enforce its security rules, regardless of whether the object was created from script or not. But I'm not sure, it's worth looking into. > [2] might be better resolved by using our own frameless "mini-browser" > the same way the google toolbar does (using the native IE component). Yep, I've been playing with this too, I think there's even code in CVS for it. Ah, there it is; the WindowLauncher is a lame attempt at popping up a window hosting the webbrowser and open an URL in it. We could do something like it to build a nicer-looking window. > And this, > too, could be done with the same mechanism as the xmlhttp > instantiation, making it possible to minimize or prevent > external access to our objects. It sounds like you have something 'automatic' in mind that just solves the security issues here? Can you explain that a little bit more?
