Had a quick go at skinning this for the new Indigo release, here's what I got...

Any chance of allowing the actual browser page to be positioned by the skin file? :p

Looking forward to InfoService compatibility :D

The geckobrowser can now be used like a normal skin control.
Code:
<control>
     <description>GeckoBrowser</description>
     <type>webbrowser</type>
     <posX>0</posX>
     <posY>100</posY>
     <width>1280</width>
     <height>590</height>
</control>
But the latest build is quite buggy, so i can't release this build yet. Only the tags posX, posY, width and height are working. Right now, I don't know which one else could be useful :>

Is there a possibility to set a link somewhere in a MP-Plugin and open it with the GeckoBrowser Plugin?

Hello,

i'm installed GeckoBrowser after i've read the Plugin Installation Guide.
Now i've some problems:
- sometimes GeckoBrowser doesn't start, i get only a Black Screen
- I have Google as the Start-Page but i can't type anything with the Keyboard, so i can't browse

There are any idea what' wrong?
Pleas help me i need the function to browse in MP

    InfoService RSS Messages URL are not opened in GeckoBrowser.
    GeckoBrowser always starts on Homepage or google.de when homepage is not set.

    Thanx André
