Internet Extender and Showing Web Pages

Keywords:     web browser

Question:

Can I use wwwsk34I.dll (the Internet Extender) to show a web page as it would appear in a web browser? for instance:
;=========================================
URL="http://blabla.com"
serv=httpGetServer(URl, "")
path=httpGetpath("%URl%/my page", "")
a=httpRecvText(serv, path, 1000, 0) 
message("my page", a)
This only returns the html code in a message box.

Answer:

Probably not. It's NOT a web browser. It can just fetch the data. You can clean up the data to remove the HTML tags (I think there is a function that helps you do this) but no way to directly display it.

You could redirect the data to a file and point your Browser at it.
