MSIE HTML viewer?

I am (reluctantly) considering using MSIE HTML viewer to render some reports on-screen within wx...

- Is there a demo app somewhere?

- Does it still exist?
   I don't see it at http://wxpython.org/docs/api/wx.lib-module.html

- Will WebKit rescue me?

Thanks,
Michael

The demo has an example in the ActiveX section. I think the guy behind
the webkit port said that there would be a Windows build in the next
release, but he didn't give an ETA.

Yeah, and much as I'd love to report otherwise, I really have been unable to devote time to it recently. :frowning:

Best,

Ok. Perhaps I will have to get over my aversion to anything with ActiveX in the title.

But that demo won't run on either of my systems. The demo shows this error:

   ImportError No module named comtypes
   activex.py line 35 import comtypes

Also appears comtypes does not install via easy_install. I'm running 2.8.11.0 (msw-unicode).

If you follow this link: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=python+comtypes

You'll discover that you can download an installer here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/comtypes/files/
