The point is not in the possibility to embed Gecko, but in the cross-platform way to do it. For example, if I will use Gecko# control, it will work in Mono on any OS, but will not work in .NET on Windows without a special installation of Gtk#, but if both of the frameworks (.NET and Mono) will have implementation of System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser Control, which is already included in .NET 2.0 Beta 2, we'll can develop cross-platform applications with embedding of HTML rendering engine without any headache about using of IE ActiveX element or Gecko#. ------- Andrew Sklyarevsky, Tashkent. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oridea.org/ http://www.livejournal.com/users/snoralip/

It's a wrapper of IE. I have found an Mozilla/Gecko ActiveX control which can be used from .net here: http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/control.htm Never tried it, but looks like a way to go :) Cheers Sunny _______________________________________________ Mono-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-devel-list
