I am familiar with those efforts. That's what I was referring to when I mentioned I was not successful in getting the Qt embedding tests in the Mozilla branch to build and/or work. I'm assuming the work that was done has been all under Linux. I could not get either implementation to build 'as is' under windows. With some tinkering around, I was finally able to get one compiled along with the test, but it didn't work. (It would always hang when starting to load the home page). I didn't have the knowledge or the time to spend debugging it.

What I'm actually trying to produce is a product that does not need to be built within the framework of the Mozilla project. I am creating a Qt widget that merely compiles against the mozilla include files and links against the needed libs. I even pulled out the .h and .lib files that are required into a single directory, and that is all I need to do the development. Other than the stated 2 problems, it works quite well, and the source code is far less complicated than the 2 current efforts.

With regards to it crashing on secure sites, I just found that the built version of mfcembed also crashes on secure sites, although winembed does not. I have begun the process of getting and building a stable release instead of a nightly build. So actually, I'm assuming that I'm probably down to one major problem with the code.

Hello,

there are already two such implementations (being merged)
Why to create another one?

Please read http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/view/666 for more details.
There is a link to an implementation which works immediately on win32 and linux(+gtk2) core

I am working on creating a cross platform Qt Widget that encompasses
Gecko and will hopefully be easy to use. I was not successful in getting
the Qt embedding tests in the Mozilla branch to build and/or work. (I am
doing the initial work under Windows). I am mostly successful, and have
a test program that acts as a pretty decent web browser except for 2
main problems. Any help on either one will be greatly appreciated.

1) Prior to implementing a Window Creator, when I filled in a field on a
web page and pressed a button for some action, nothing happened. Once I
realized that it wanted a new window (via the Window Creator) I
implemented one. After that, when I entered text and pressed a button,
it displayed the new page... ONCE. After that first time (within the
execution of the application), it will not generate any more pages in
response to a button press (links work). Does anyone have any ideas why
it would work once and not a second time? I've stepped through my Window
Creator code and it successfully creates the window every time.

2) It crashes when trying to access a secure web page. Is there anything
special that needs to be done by the embeddeding software to handle
secure sites??? I can't even picture where the embedding code can affect
this.

I am using code from late November.

Thanks in advance
Steve
