Welcome to MessengerGeek.
Of course, I can’t make a browser, I am not an “expert developer”, and I never think I am. However, a broswer a quite a complicated piece of software, which requires many components to work together, many broswer has a render engine in order to make modern web browsing experience smoother. It’s not as easy as you think, not an IE frame in Visual Studio. You will need to understand how exactly a browser works in order to make it. Or this project will be forgotten like many other projects on this forum such as CatMessenger. And you might get your account banned if you make too many of these because we have seen to many projects like this.
Start with something little. Writing console applications is not bizarre, in fact, it is better than start writing GUI in the first place.
actually as of a couple months ago trekie is a escargot dev
Not exactly an Escargot developer. He just gained remote access to the servers and maintains them.
still counts as being engaged in the project😛
And what advantages does this browser offer (apart from starting with the Messengergeek website)?
being an IE frame that if IE gets removed the browser wont work
TReKiE close this
Not funny, didn’t laugh. Seriously. I didn’t laugh.
What the heck? I didn’t make a joke.
I know you didn’t, just the “TReKiE Close this” thing kinda felt like a dick move.
Lol
huh.
could I download it? I wanna take it for a test drive,
By default IEFrame won’t be using the IE11 settings
Open your main .vb file in a code editor, and put this in
Private Sub VB FILE NAME_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION", "EXENAME.exe", "11001", Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.DWord)
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION", "EXENAME.vshost.exe", "11001", Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.DWord)
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BEHAVIORS", "EXE NAME.exe", "1", Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.DWord)
End Sub
Of coure make sure the edit the “EXE NAME’s” and the “VB FILE NAME” to the appropriate ones
