Is it possible to create an application in REALbasic that does the same thing, but then on Windows? I'd like to get some code if it is possible!

I think you need to be a bit more specific about what your needs are. If you're talking specific to Safari, there's no need to write anything as Safari is available on Windows. If you're talking specific to your app, then yes. It's entirely possible to have all the sockets in your app report their download status and display it in one window. Displaying an activity window for the HTMLview however is going to be a bit harder as it doesn't directly expose this info to you. _________________ ImagePlay Effects Library (40+ image effects in one open source module.

Well basically what I want is this: - Load a website in a HTMLViewer (a YouTube page for example) - Then display all used objects in a listbox This is what Safari shows me: Can you tell me how to do it on Windows?

This of course won't work in cases where the media is dynamic, for example if it's loaded via JavaScript. So, what's your ultimate goal. Are you wanting to build an activity viewer for the HTMLview just to have one? Or are you trying to achieve something else, like automatically extract some media-type from a page. _________________ ImagePlay Effects Library (40+ image effects in one open source module.

Hi, Again, thank you very much for your reply! I just want to build an activity viewer for the HTMLViewer, that works on Windows. It does not need to automatically extract a specific media-type from a page. Can you tell me how to build such a "HTML Scraper" or even better, send me an example .rb file?

The control doesn't expose that kind of information. You can get close with the DocumentProgressChanged and StatusChanged events, but I don't think you can get the granularity you want.
