Embedding an Internet Explorer control - C++ WinAPI

Question

How can I embed an Internet Explorer control into my application using C++/WinAPI?

I swear I have searched; I can\'t find any documentation on this.

Answer 1

I've been searching for this too, some useful links:

IWebBrowser2: how to force links to open in new window?

http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1788/Loading-and-parsing-HTML-using-MSHTML-3rd-way

http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/3919/Using-the-WebBrowser-control-simplified

From what I remember it was most useful to implement the IHTMLDocument interface instead of the full web browser.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Try these:

• Embed an HTML control in your own window using plain C
• Programming the MSHTML Web Browser Control with C++

Since interacting with controls such as these requires COM/COM+ programming, you could also benefit from learning those methods as well.
