Pre-processing a html stream...

[greaver]

Hey Guys,

I want to pre-process a html file before displaying it in IE. Should I create a plug-in for that and if so, how do I go about creating a plug-in in C#?

Alternatively, is there a "browser-control" in C# that I can just feed an htlm stream? I recall seeing something like that in VB...

There is a way to write your own ISAPI DLL (sortof) - I think it's called HttpModule. IIS forwards incoming requests through a linked chain of these modules.

IIS and ISAPI is server side code. He is looking for browser/client side code it sounds like.

As far as i know you can build DLL's that IE will attach. Of course the user has to install your DLL. The only problem with using .NET is that it would require the user to install the .NET Runtime.

>> is there a "browser-control" in C#

IE "is" a browser control so it should be available as any other ActiveX control in C# through COM interop, yes?

If no one can help with direct knowledge of this subject, you can research IE customization techniques at msdn.microsoft.com
