C++Builder Component

[Cracking]

I'm looking for a BCB Ver 4 component which acts like a web browser. Any
help would be most appreciated.

It was a dark and stormy night when "Cracking"

I'm looking for a BCB Ver 4 component which acts like a web
browser. Any help would be most appreciated.

I've looked at the code you reference, but they all seem to require another
browser to be present. I wanted to have a stand-alone program.

I failed to mentin that my program does not have to go onto the web - only
read an HTML file plus graphics, tetc - all on the current machine.

The problem with your request is, as far as I know, the only way to
get a decent HTML rendering engine is using either MSHTML or Gecko,
and they require to be installed. By the way, a page explaining how
to embed Gecko is:
<http://www.mozilla.org/projects/embedding/>

There is a stand-alone HTML rendering engine called QHTML but it has
some limitations, including a lack of support for CSS/Scripting,
still if you want to try it there is a stand-alone demo here:

And its homepage is:
