Hi quick query,
I know the web object is based on the IE active X control but I am curious about whether it acts exactly as IE. For example does it store cookies/temp internet files? Also is it susceptible to browser hijacks, popups, hidden downloads etc?
I am thinking about creating a browser facility in a project to let kids access the net in a controlled way. Is this likely to be a workable idea? I was hoping to be able to block other browsers using a firewall and grant internet access only to the AMS project. Will the firewall recognise the difference between IE and my project?
Finally! Is there any possibility of including a Mozilla based web object in future AMS versions? I dislike IE for the reasons mentioned above and because of its problems rendering CSS compared to Mozilla/Opera.
