Ugh, this requires starting up python on each request. What I did on the desktop was to use a modified dibler.py (from the spambayes project). I combined that with SimpleTAL. Then, I use venster to create a simple frame application that uses ATL to embed IE as the window contents. You should see the 'test browser' application in venster examples. I just start a dibbler 'http server' instance in it's own thread, then tell embedded IE to navigate to the local server's address and port. I'm sure there's no problem getting dibbler and SimpleTAL to run on pythonce. For the embedded IE browser, probably win32gui could do it if the ATL hack works on CE. Another option is to use the shell to launch IE to your URL. The only problem there is figuring out when to quit your application. I'm not sure if you'll be able to use the process handle on CE, I haven't tried it. -- Brad Clements, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (315)268-1000 http://www.murkworks.com (315)268-9812 Fax http://www.wecanstopspam.org/ AOL-IM: BKClements _______________________________________________ PythonCE mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonce
