Hi

Is it possible to show mhtml (mht, mhtm) files in the Chromium based webbrowser control? Chrome supports it from local storage. CHromium suports it (according the documentation I've found). But if I try navigate to a local mhtml file the WebBrowser object shows nothing.

ll_ret = browser.navigate("D:\test.mhtml")

returns 1. But shows blank page.

 What I tried:

I set

WebBrowserSet ("allow-file-access-from-files","true")

before I opened the webbrowser object.

 

browser.navigate("D:\test.mhtm")

browser.navigate("D:\test.mht")

browser.navigate("file://D:\test.mhtml")

 

but nothing worked.

 

Is opening mhtml format limited somehow in the webbrowser object? Or am I overlooking some option? I use this format for saving formated e-mails because this is a native format supported by Outlook.

Thank you Chris. Is there a public link to PB2022 Beta? I can't find it.

Hi Thomas;

  Please try this in PB2022 Beta as Appeon Engineering is currently updating the entire Chromium Engine (underneath the PB hood) for the built-in WB Control for this new PB release.

Regards ... Chris
