IEHtmlWindow and Firefox

Hi,

Actually, I use IEHtmlWindow. This widget depends on Internet Explorer.
I wonder if it was possible to use Firefox instead of IE in wxPython ?

Thx

Chris

Not really. There was a project a number of years ago that tried just
that, but I don't think they really got it working. You need to bind
the XPCOM stuff, I think. And XUL is kind of weird too. Kevin has been
working on a Webkit port though, so you could wait for that.

Or you could always use the GTK version of WebKit via wxPython in the
mean time. I have managed to get that working on Ubuntu. It handles
Dojo charting with dynamic Javascript effects just fine.
