Embed C# Application into a browser

[Bob]

Hi,

I was just wondering if it is possible to create your own c#
application then embed that into a browser , a bit like a Java
Application?

If it is possible to you have to have a specific version of Visual
Studio.Net and / or version of the framework.

Also, are there any licensing issues that I would need to explore?

Thanks

Such functionality can be encapsulated into a server control (ASP.NET). In
your control, you can have the logic, controls, html and even javascript
that's sent back to the client (browser) when the containing page is
requested.

Thanks for your reply,

Just to elaborate. Could this control be as feature rich as say an
excel spreadsheet or embeded windows media player

or are we talking about a control using a combination of post back,
view state, html and javascript?

That'd be the second one. If you want something like the first choice you'd
have to create an ActiveX using Visual C++ or another tool that allows
creating ActiveX Controls.

For excel spreadsheets there's some sort of office webcomponents
plugin. But those viewing your site have to have it installed.

Bob,

Take a look at 'No touch deployment' technology (available in .NET 1.1),
that allows you to create in C# something similar to Java applets.

In principle, the main limitation is that .NET must be installed in the
client machine.
