[Openroad-users] Embedding a webpage into an OpenROAD frame

[Bodo Bergmann]

One additon/correction:
 
You can use the webbrowser.Navigate() method directly in the initialize
block after doing CurFrame.Flush().
This works at least in OR2006 (not sure about OR4.1).
 
As I experienced problems with other ActiveX controls even after
CurFrame.Flush(),
I usually use the CurFrame.SendUserEvent() approach (sometimes even with
delay parameter)
when working with external fields.

Colin,
you can follow the steps below:

1.	
	In your OpenROAD app create an ExternalClassLibrary using the
"Microsoft Internet Controls" TypeLib
2.	
	In the frame use menu "Insert->Field From External Object..."
and select the "webbrowser" control, draw the boundaries of the field.
3.	
	To load a webpage or file use the Navigate method, e.g.:
	
	    webbrowser_fld.Navigate('http://www.ingres.com/support'); //
use url syntax, e.g. 'file://c:\mypath\myfile.txt'
	
	Make sure the control is fully initialized before using the
Navigate method.
	That is - do not use it in the INITIALIZE block.
	If you want to load the webpage on framestart, then use
CurFrame.SendUserevent() and use the Navigate method
	in the according event block.

Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Bodo.
