I don't want open a page in the default browser. I need a page view in the actual game keeping all the bullets, explosions, and bodies company. I'm really hoping I don't have to build my own browser to do this. :-D |

If you're using MaxGUI, you can use the HTMLView command to render a webpage. If you have a full-screen non-GUI game, then you're going to be on your own. :-? |

You might be able to render to a buffer and upload the resulting texture using something like WebKit, but that's about all I can think of offering. |

I downloaded the BlitzMax demo to try MaxGUI out. It worked like a charm. Everything was smooth on pages with Java Script too. I don't know if MaxGUI uses IE as a backend, but it seems general browser stuff works. I've wanted to get the module for a while anyway. I guess it's time to start scraping up the cash. Hmm... Could I use it to run Flash? :-D Thanks for the advice. |

I don't know if MaxGUI uses IE as a backend Yes, it does. |

Thanks Brucey. I'm guessing with a Mac the work would be done by Safari. What about Linux? On plugins: Does BlitzMax only use the basic browser features or does the whole gang come along for the ride? |
