Good day all, I am attempting to display html pages using wxHaskell's HtmlWindow functions. I am hoping that it is indeed possible for me to do just that and that I haven't misunderstood what HtmlWindow is used for. My code so far will create a frame, a button and an HtmlWindow and other assorted things. I would like an html file to be displayed in the window when the button is clicked. At the moment, only the path (a string) of the html file that I would like to display is printed in the window when the button is clicked. Here is some of the code i've been trying to get to do this: do -- the main frame f <- frame [text := "Browser", fullRepaintOnResize := False] -- create html window hw <- htmlWindowCreate f 1 (Rect 50 150 50 150) 5 "theWindow" -- 'load page' button go <- button f [text := "Load Page", on command := htmlWindowSetPage hw "c:/example.html"] (I've left out the layout part here) htmlWindowSetPage might be the wrong function to use for this or I might just be using it incorrectly. This may well be more complicated than I'm hoping it is too! Thankyou to whoever has a look at this. bye all David

Hi, When I use the htmlWindowLoadPage hw "./test.html" function, everything works fine and I see the content of the test.html page. Cheers Patrick On Tuesday 15 March 2005 15:51, David Owen wrote:
