Just wondering if anyone has had any thoughts/has created a version of nHTMLn that is a chromium wrapper?

I've only managed to find versions of nHTMLn that seem to be based on Internet Explorer 6, and one version based on an OLD version of Gecko

What's your thoughts on this?/

I saw something that emulates firefox on mircscripts.org, other than that, there's nothing.

Probably the old gecko version I was talking about that was made last year... unfortunately, the developer used an old version of gecko, or perhaps made it well before he released it

I hate nHTML for emulating IE.
Not sure if DCX's web control emulates FireFox, IE or the default browser... Try DCX's Web Control and see if it works thu

I suspect that it emulates the default browser, as I have used DCX's web controls on systems that have FireFox but not IE, as well as systems that have IE but not FireFox.

It seems DCX also uses IE as the internal browser frown

The worst part about using IE as the browser, is that if you design anything in it, you don't know how it will show on the next computer (uses internal version of IE)

However, allthough its about 16mb in 2 required DLLs, Chromium Embedded <http://code.google.com/p/chromiumembedded/> includes the whole browser (so you would be able to make sure everything renders as you designed it)

The issue is creating a mIRC DLL that can communicate with the two DLL's (I can't do it)

icudt38.dll
libcef.dll

These are the two files that are distributed with chromiumembedded, and there is a cefclient.exe that communicates with this, and provides the browser "chrome".

I'm fairly sure that someone could do it without hassle as it's all open source, and mostly done for the person already... anyone?
