Hybrid GUI

[gdesou]

Is it possible to mix dynamically generated html code to be rendered
in a control and interact backwards and forwards with the generated
code?
I'm planning to develop an application that uses winforms for data
entry and once data is modified use xsl transformations to render a
memory stream with the xml code representing my objects. I'll like to
do that to be able to use css for layout design.
Is it possible to exchange data between the generated web page and the
application (both ways)? Is it too much of an overhead?
I'll appreciate any help on this (code snippets welcomed!)
Thanks in advance

To be brutally honest you're talking a mixture of technologies that
cannot be easily answered here.

My reaction to your idea would be to have you're WinFrms system talk to
a web-service and do the HTTP / ASP section as normal.

Keep It Simple....
