Re: [Flashcoders] Website in an application
You can get headers, tags, etc. not too sure about preventing links from being clicked though - probably can do that.

Re: [Flashcoders] Website in an application
By default, all clicked links will be contained within the HTMLLoader instance. You have to explicitly allow links to be opened in the system browser. As to the rest, you need to talk to a DOM/JS expert. I'm certain that what you want can be accomplished because you can inject your own javascript into any HTML page that the HTMLLoader loads, and thus have complete control over the content of the page. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

And of course they only want the user to navigate around the corporate site, not go to other sites, so no access to a url window either. :) Suggestion or a place of a reference for a similar project would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance for any advise or help, John Sounds like an excellent time to make a projector then.

Re: [Flashcoders] Website in an application
Hi John, I'd take a look at AIR. It allows you to drop in real HTML components (using the WebKit engine, the same thing that Safari uses) controlled from a Flash application.

Re: [Flashcoders] Website in an application
G'day, Well it's up to you to educate the client since you are an Interactive Multimedia Developer that knows ( I suppose ) that you can't render html sites within flash. If that corporate site is flash I don't see your problem, just use a swf projector. If it is html you will need a third party tool that locks all features of an OS and browser down and that let's you stay where you want the user to be (at the corporate location).

Re: [Flashcoders] Website in an application
It already is a projector and as such, you can't put HTML websites inside. But thank you anyway.
