Hi Chung , Of coure i want to ship my personal browser with my products too :-), but will this be immune to those popup blockers? Third party extensions are not loaded by the MSHTML control, so it wouldn't be affected by pop-up blockers--or spyware for that matters. WinXP SP2's popup blocker is controlled by something known as IInternetSecurityManager, whose behavior you can override by implementing your own. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Web Application Client Module
Raffi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi All, I hope I'm posting this question to the correct newsgroups. We have a web based database application that's accessed using IE. The application opens a popup window to run in. With all the popup blockers and compromised browsers out there, I'm looking into developing a web based custom client side application to access the application with. The application will be developed to only reach the web application site using the https protocol. It also needs to javascript enabled. It will be downloaded from the main web site and used to access the database application. Any suggestions/ideas on how to go about developing the client application? What tools tools are out there for such a project. It's easy. Just create an application that hosts the MSHTML ActiveX control (IE itself minus the interface). With tools like Delphi or Visual Basic, it's literally a matter of dragging and dropping the control into the form. Even in Visual C++ it's not that hard. Forcing Javascript to be on is somewhat more tricky. There are a couple COM interfaces that you to implement. I suggest you google MSHTML hosting for more info. The newsgroup microsoft.public.inetsdk.programming.mshtml_hosting is also an excellent resource. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
