0 apoc_xp Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 I don't follow. What do you mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 anog Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 What do you mean, "Build internet explorer"? Do you mean using the IE control and just build your own interface for it? Just use the rendering engine? And if you ask how you can do that, i'd say you are a beginner... and if you indeed are, i think (and this is just my opinion) that you should start by making smaller and simpler applications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 null_ Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 You can use Visual Basic to create a web browser using the Internet Explorer rendering engine, I think most of the .NET programming languages allow it too (C#, etc), I think the the Visual Studio.NET 2005 Express Beta products can be used for this as well. It's up to your own personal preferance and knowledge. Good luck. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 +virtorio MVC Posted August 1, 2004 MVC Share Posted August 1, 2004 Its easy to use the IE control in any .net language (you simply import the IE Active X control) and use its basic methods like Navigate, Refresh, Stop and so on... To get it to work in MFC (I haven't bothered to try but I assume) you have you have a good understanding of COM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 bithub Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 To get it to work in MFC (I haven't bothered to try but I assume) you have you have a good understanding of COM. Nope. All you have to do is drag the control onto your dialog. Piece of cake. I was using the IE control via MFC before I knew what COM stood for :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
