When I build a site, I'd like to have at least one browser I can show it off in without any hacks or workarounds, and yet still retain maximum functionality. Knowing that none of the browsers have perfect standards adherence, which one comes closest? Also, are there any standards areas in which a single browser seems to specialize? Oper...
When you use the WebBrowser control in .NET you can "embed" an instance of IE in your application, essentially making your own IE-based Web Browser.

Using the default TWebBrowser makes things easy to embed a web browser. Unfortunately the one that comes in by default is IE<n>. I'm wondering how does one integrate a Gecko or WebKit one. Are there VCL examples somewhere? If not, how would one go about doing it? Where's the best place to find the core for Gecko and/or WebKit in an em...
