Thanks Alec for your suggestions, sure I will be developing the application in the next days and I will post in the newsgroup the results.
There is only one thing I am confused about: I thought that gecko rendering machine was portable across many platforms (including MSWindows, Mac, and many UNIXes, Linux, Solaris, HP/UX, AIX, ...). But the Embedding FAQ (http://www.mozilla.org/projects/embedding/faq.html) announces portability only to MSWindows, Mac and Linux. What is the right answer? Or what is going to be the right answer for the near future? Thank you very much.
