Mozilla Control

[James]

Hey,

As far as I know I am the first to do this. People, want to make a web browser, now they can! I have started using the Mozilla ActiveX control

You need to install the com object by downloading from the link here. Then

# Open a DOS prompt, change to your Mozilla bin directory (e.g. "cd c:\mozilla\bin")

# Type "regsvr32 mozctlx.dll"

And here is what I have done:

;~ Mozilla Control
;~ James Brooks

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Global $Moz = ObjCreate("Mozilla.Browser.1")

$Form1 = GUICreate("GUI", 793, 641, -1, -1)
$GUI_ActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj($Moz, 8, 40, 776, 568)
With $Moz
    .Navigate2("http://www.google.co.uk")
EndWith

$Go = GUICtrlCreateButton("Go", 24, 0, 75, 33, 0)
$Navigate = GUICtrlCreateInput("http://", 120, 8, 657, 21)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $Go, $Navigate
            $Moz.Navigate2 (GUICtrlRead($Navigate))
    EndSwitch
WEnd

I have only done navigation, but more info can be found at, http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/mozilla.htm.

Have fun

Seems nice, but for addition, you can add this line

RunWait('Regsvr32 /s "c:\mozilla\bin\mozctlx.dll"')

to register .dll automatically.

This is great! Much better then IE.

Suit yourself, but that ActiveX control was based on a very old emulation of IE when development appears to have stopped a couple of years ago. You might want to look at the IETab addon.

Ahh ok, well its better than IE in my view. But IE will be used by me in Autoit.

I stand by my statement here.

[James]

That makes no sense. This is the firefox control.

That's alright, I didn't expect you to understand.
