HTML control

Hi all

I have a problem with and HTML control [WD23], when i open the site [www.trafficengland.com]

the page is black and flashes, if i open the page directly in a chrome, Firefox or edge the page loads fine, its only when i open the page in IE

therefore the HTML control must use IE, is there anyway of changing this?

I tried using Microsoft web browser activex but no surprise worked the same as IE.

any ideas?

thank ISO

yes, it uses IE.
No there is no way to change that.

Solution, use a chromium integration (example available in the repository)

Hello Argus,

Thanks for that, i'm first going to try and uninstall IE, if that doesn't work i will the repository which i have just looked at and sounds interesting.

Afaik the new HTML control in V26 uses chromium.

Hi Iso,

Here's a snippet of code (WD22) to force the html control s to use IE11:

sExeName         is string
nIEversion         is int

// get the EXE name
sExeName=fExtractPath( ExeInfo(exeName),fFileName+fExtension)

// read current IE compatibility setting
nIEversion=RegistryQueryValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION",sExeName)

// changing setting if needed
IF NOT nIEversion IN (10001,11001)  THEN
	// neither IE10 or IE11
	// force IE11
	nIEversion=11001   //10001 for  IE10, 11001 for  IE11
	IF NOT RegistrySetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION",sExeName,nIEversion) THEN
		Error("Impossible de forcer la version de Internet Explorer",ErrorInfo())
	END
END

Regards.
Piet
