I don't think that would help because html isn't pixel exact. The relationship
between background html and foreground Pd canvas objects (which in Purr Data
are
just svg elements) is difficult and unintuitive to control.

I have added some drawing instructions and event handlers to data structures
with the [draw] object. That allows grouping
and arbitrary path drawings. (But I don't have an interface to draw text yet.)

It is, and Purr Data patches themselves are just html files with an svg on them.

It's probably easier to allow opening arbitrary html files and having a nice
interface for
talking to Pd through them. That would be more flexible and easier to
implement/maintain.
But feel free to experiment with putting html content inside an external. It
shouldn't be
hard to create an external that displays HTML5 content in a rectangle on a Pd
canvas. Throw
some webgl in there, or a video player. The hard part only comes if you want
to add xlets and
somehow interface with the displayed state through Pd messages.

What did you have in mind?

It's possible to do that atm, either by changing one of the css files
or through devtools. But I don't have an interface that lets you set
this by sending a Pd message within a patch.
> Is there an object that loads and display html?
There isn't. You could load an html page and send messages to
Pd from it. But again, I don't have an interface built to do anything
like that yet.
