Alaska,
Can XbpHTMLStyle() and/or XbpHTMLWindow() use any CSS function or only
plain HTML?
In other words, can XbpHTMLStyle() and/or XbpHTMLWindow() deploy CSS
functions such as calc() or linear-gradient() ?

Many thanks,
-Itai

Itai,

>In other words, can XbpHTMLStyle() and/or XbpHTMLWindow() deploy CSS
>functions such as calc() or linear-gradient() ?

As those classes are based on the (obsolete) HTMLayout DLL, and those 
functions were introduced with CSS3, they aren't supported. Only if/when 
Alaska replaces HTMLayout with something more modern, like Chromium or 
WebKit, is there any chance that those and other modern CSS (and HTML) 
features will be available for those classes.

The XbpHTMLViewer() class, which is basically an Active-X version of the 
Internet Explorer, can probably handle those functions, but it doesn't 
render into an (Xbase++) Presentation Space.

Hope that helps,

Andreas

Thank you, Andreas!
I hope Alaska will soon catchup with today CSS.

Can XbpHTMLStyle() and/or XbpHTMLWindow() use any CSS function (e.g.
rgb()) ?  If yes, is there a list of supported functions?

Htmllayout is "Outdate" and have be replace by Sciter

Jim,
Sound interesting.  Does it work with xBase++?  How?

is there a 32 Bit Chromium Version ?
as i know it is only 64 Bit so "no Chance" until Alaska switch to 64 Bit

Hi Jim,

It is not entirely true.

On the main page of https://antview.dev/ you can read the following:
"Another control has come in its place, based on Chromium. It is called 
WebView2 and shares code with Microsoft Edge.
Microsoft provides bindings for a variety of languages ​​and even added a com 
interface, but not all programming languages ​​can directly consume that 
particular interface.
Microsoft declared that interface as being solely for C++ and refers to it as 
the Win32 interface whereas the other programming languages ​​it is designed for 
are .net variants."

I have done tests and it seems to work correctly with Xbase++, although all 
communication with WebView2 goes through JavaScript (sic. "The WebView2 
control does not offer a direct way to interact with the DOM interface") 

Until Alaska develops its own option (something that should already be done), 
it may be an alternative. I do not know!

Regards. Diego

hi Diego,

Yes you are right with 32 Bit Version.

your Solution, using 3-PP ActiveX, does cost 398,- 
i wonder that nobody have made a "Wrapper" to use EDGE under Xbase++ like it 
exist under HMG
