Hi,
Thanks for the reply...
As I have mentioned in my earlier mails, I want to use the browser
engine only. I don't want to create any gui (windows, menu bars, status
bars, etc).
I'm still not able to figure our whether I can do this.
Thanks,
Raghunath

Hi Niky,
I have written a small sample code to navigate to URL. I have put it
inline with this mail.
When I call LoadURI on a nsIWebNavigation object, I get an
NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED error. Can you tell me what am I missing?
Thanks,
Raghu

You need to have a window created before you call the navigate method.
To create a window, you have to implement these base classes at minimum:
nsIWindowCreator
nsIWebBrowserChrome
nsIEmbeddingSiteWindow
nsIWebProgressListener
Check this link out, it will explain what the above interfaces do.
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/embedding/embedoverview/EmbeddingBasics13.html
How I've got mine setup is I actually have 2 classes. One just uses the
nsIWindowCreator as the base class...it handles all the creation of the
windows..JS popups, security popups, etc.
Then my 2nd class uses the other interfaces (nsIWebBrowserChrome,
nsIEmbeddingSiteWindow, nsIWebProgressListener, and a few others) as the
base classes.
Here is a brief overview of how I initialize everything...
In my main class (nsIWindowCreator as the base) I have an Initialization
function that gets passed the directory to the bin and the profile name
I want to use. In that function I call NS_InitEmbedding, setup a
profile (take a look at NS_NewProfileDirServiceProvider ()), and setup
my window watcher. There is only one function you have to implement in
the nsIWindowCreator interface...that is the
nsIWindowCreator::CreateChromeWindow () method. When you setup a window
watcher like I did above, any calls to create new web windows..like a JS
popup..will call this function. You have to implement it otherwise your
JS alerts/popups won't work. Once that is setup, you can call the
CreateChromeWindow method yourself from your code to start your first
window. Within that function You have to create an HWND (assuming you
are on Win32 platform) and create an instance of your other class (the
one that has nsIWebBrowserChrome, nsIWebProgressListener and
nsIEmbeddingSiteWindow). Now you have to tell it to use that HWND to
display all that HTML. This is where you create your WebBrowser
instance like you have in your code already, then you call the
nsIWebBrowser::SetContainerWindow () method from the web browser object
you just created and pass it the 2nd class that you just created...as
the browser needs a "home". Query interface on the Web Browser for a
nsIBaseWindow and call the InitWindow () function on it. This is where
you pass it the HWND and the size you want it to be...then call the
Create () function right after that. Don't forget to call the
SetVisibility () method on the base window here too. From the web
browser object, you can query interface for a nsIWebBrowserFocus object.
Once you have it, call the Activate () method...otherwise you won't be
able to type in any of the edit boxes. That's pretty much the basics on
getting a browser setup...I didn't include all the details, otherwise
you'd be reading a lot longer email, I think it's getting too long
already. I hope this helps, if you will look in
\mozilla\embedding\tests, there is the winEmbed and mfcembed examples
there. I used the winEmbed example more to get started as the code is
not as bloated as the mfcembed. These will be your best source for
getting started. If you aren't up to implementing all the above, there
is always the ActiveX object from Adam Lock. Let me know if you have
any more questions and I'll try to answer them.
