WebBrowser control

[Ray]

Anybody knows what's the equivalent of the WebBrowser
control in .NET?

Thanks.

There's not one.. .you have to use the com one. Go into your toolbox and
add an item. Under the COM tab, Microsoft Web Browser ... *.\shdocvw.dll

Apparently a proper managed version is coming with the next version of
Visual Studio (late 2004?)

Hi Ray,

When you are using the webbrowser be aware that you use the AXshdocvw.dll

Here is a sample which also installs that on your computer.
(As the name says it is AX not real a webbrowser for dotnet)

webbrowser

mshtml
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/browser/hosting/hosting.asp

And direct a link to Mshtml, mostly you need that when you are using the
axwebbrowser.

The best way to handle is to set it in your toolbox by adding it to that and
than drag it to the form.
(I do not often use the designer however for this forever).

I hope this helps?
