Re: [wxperl-users] wxWidgets web browser

[Mark D. <mar...@zn...>]

Following on from Eric's pointer towards Wx::FS, I find that it does not
work on my system either.

This is because the wxWidgets I am using is compiled with:

#define wxUSE_FS_INET       0

So anyone using the PPMs I post from time to time will be similarly
affected.

The setting is part of the patches included with Alien::wxWidgets.

I'll check and see if I can find out why this patch is there.

Regards

Mark

Parsing the HTML for img tags and downloading the images separately sounds like a bad idea, mostly because I suspect I would have to match the directory hierarchy of the web server I am pulling from and change any absolute image URLs to relative urls.

Is there an easy way to embed IE or Firefox in a wxWidgets frame with Javascript disabled (without disabling it for the user's "real" browser as well)?
