Mac Forum / Applications / Firefox / Mozilla / September 2004Standalone browser
I have an application that I wrote for MS Windows. One of the screens is a browser window in which I display HTML pages and intercept clicks on links so that I can alter, if wanted the action. I do this by making calls to library routines which Microsoft provides since it bundles Internet Explorer with its OS. I would like to move the application to a Mac running OsX. Is there a library to which I can make such calls. I have moved the application to X11 (without the browser calls) and so would be happy to insist users install X11 on their Macs. -- Wojciech Komornicki > I have an application that I wrote for MS Windows.

I don't get it ... you intercept clicks on <a>nchor tags and redirect them to somewhere other than intended/written in the html? Are you using the browser as a thin gui to an application? Maybe there's another way to achieve what you are looking for. Maybe you can give a more concrete example of what it is that it is doing ... Though I have nothing close to a definitive answer, I'd imagine this would be quite difficult to impossible achieve/do seeing as how this type of 'functionality' could be a potential security hole, no? -steve |
