dna	Is it possible for someone to make a browser like firefox in BB? -=-=- DNA

flying_cucco	Yes, and no. It is possible to make a simple browser in blitz, in fact there are several already. However page rendering is very complex, even before you start on javascript etc. so a complete browser "like firefox" would be very difficult.

Jayenkai	It is indeed rather insanely complex! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

HoboBen	Not to mention that it took god-knows-how-many people all those years. Firefox doesn't just go back to 2003 - parts of it date all the way back to Netscape! -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code

dna	"parts of it date all the way back to Netscape!" That's what I thought I read. Someone took the open source code from Netscape and made Firefox, amazing. What is that you are showing us jay? -=-=- DNA

Jayenkai	That's Mozilla's Gecko browser code thing, doing what it does, in nicely colourful slow motion. It's basically everything that Firefox is doing when it loads the page shown in the last frame or two of the video.. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

JL235	Rendering a webpage is very complicated which is why many browsers don't. They use other layout engines like Trident (IE) or Gecko (FF). If your using one of them then it'd probably be quite straight forward to make a browser in BB. Although BB isn't really built for making applications.
