AxWebBrowser

[Jonas]

Two questions:

I'm thinking about using the AxWebBrowser for a small
application for a local company, is it free to use it?

I'm trying to make the browser work something like
Internet Explorers fullscreen mode, I have set the
FormBorderStyle to None but for all pages I visit i still
see a scrollbar in the right part of the window, even if
there is no need for scrolling, is there a way to get rid
of this scrollbar?

thanks

Hi Jonas,

Two questions:

The AxWebBrowser control IS actually Internet Explorer.
So as long as the tarhet computer has IE installed (which is definitely the
case since the .NET Framework distributive requires IE 5.5 or higher, as far
as I remember), I think you are absolutely free to use it.

I'm trying to make the browser work something like
Internet Explorers fullscreen mode, I have set the
FormBorderStyle to None but for all pages I visit i still
see a scrollbar in the right part of the window, even if
there is no need for scrolling, is there a way to get rid
of this scrollbar?

I think this can be customized through the control's properties.
I don't have much hands-on experience in hosting the WebBrowser control in
..NET apps, so don't know the exact answer.
