Hello everyone,

A while ago now I can across a component that you could place in flash and it would let you view html web pages from within flash. Now the frustrating this is that i cannot remember where I saw it and what the name of the component was. Has anyone any ideas?

Im working on an embedded systems project using flash and there is a requirement to view html web pages from within Flash. I know there are a number of third party apps that let you create a stand alone app, using flash, where you can create virtual browsers. One application in particular that lets you do this is SWFStudio. I have already been in touch with these guys and they do not support embedded systems so does anyone else know of any third party application that is supported on embedded systems, that will let you view HTML pages using Flash?

This is frustrating the hell out of me so any help to ease my pain would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

There is a build in HTML component but as far as I am concerned it is available in Flex for AIR only.

Hi,

Thanks for the link and as it would appear there is no solution to my problem. A real shame though as you would have thought adobe, in all thier wisdom, would have built this functionality into Flash. Maybe something to put onto the wish list for the future.

Thanks again for your help.
