Gecko Embedding Basics
Given the ever-growing importance of the Web as a source of information, entertainment, and personal connectedness, the ability to access and view data stored in HTML format is becoming more and more important for a wide variety of otherwise highly divergent software applications. Whether it's a matter of a simple HTML page viewer or of a full-fledged web browser, the ability to parse and render HTML-based documents is an increasingly significant function in many, many situations. For the application developer, the problem becomes how to implement this crucial functionality in a way that minimizes development time yet results in an agile and robust product. Embedding Gecko, the rendering engine at the heart of the Netscape and Mozilla browsers, is an outstanding solution to this problem.
