After the ListView control is released, i will be implementing a new Kixforms object called:
HtmlView (or HtmlBox)
Haven't decided on a name yet. It's a RichEdit control enhanced to implement a (very small) subset of HTML - not the whole spec - just a dozen or so tags. Thats where I was "heading" in my discussion with Rod in another thread. The HTML interface for the RichEdit "eases" the pain a little bit ...
The thing is - this would be a Viewer object (readonly) type control - you couldn't interact with it too much (like a read/write RichEdit control could do).
So like I say, after ListView - depends if we want to start on RichEdit or HtmlView ?

ps. HtmlView in no way relies on Internet Explorer being installed ... it will implement its own tiny HTML engine. [ 19. September 2002, 15:08: Message edited by: Shawn ]
