GUI components for displaying Html pages

Hi all, I'm looking for a Haskell GUI library which supports the display of rendered Html pages in the same way that web browsers do. I've been getting to grips recently with wxHaskell as it was recommended on haskell-cafe. I was hoping that a special pane component (or something similar) existed in wxHaskell for the purpose. I've looked through the API but can't seem to see anything which looks suitable. Does anybody know if wxHaskell can support this? If not is anybody aware of a Haskell GUI library which caters for this purpose. Also, I am hoping to make use of HaXmL to deal with the Html parsing or failing that attempt a very simple home-made parser. Should anybody out there know of a better way of attacking this aspect then that would be much appreciated too! (Apologies, this email might have been better suited to the libraries mailing list!) Cheers all! David (Swansea, UK)

Is this what you're looking for: http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net/doc/Graphics.UI.WXCore.WxcClassesAL.html#88 ? -- Friendly, Lemmih

That looks about right. I hadn't delved that far into WXCore library to spot all of those components. I shall have a go with them. Thanks! David

There is also Gtk2Hs which has a binding to the Mozilla rendering engine embedded in a Gtk+ widget. We have a demo program which shows how to use it (see demo/mozembed in the source distribution). http://gtk2hs.sourceforge.net/ and the API reference: http://gtk2hs.sourceforge.net/docs/gtk2hs-docs-0.9.7/Graphics.UI.Gtk.MozEmbe...
