Hello,
Looking for some advice. I'm trying to build an Internet Explorer add on in
C# which would modify a page as or just after it is downloaded by searching
the page contents and replacing any phone numbers with links. The goal
would be to have the links ultimately result in a phone call being made from
the user's phone via a client TAPI connection.
Looking at the Google toolbar it is doing something quite close to what I
want. Specifically, there is a highlight feature which when enable causes
any of the search terms entered into the toolbar to be highlighted in
various colors. Watching closely I see this happens in an apparent second
pass after the page is downloaded.
Now, writing a toolbar add on to IE it is possible to get the document
complete event. I'm hoping that in response to the event I can somehow
search and modifying the content of current page by inserting my links
around phone numbers I find. I'm presuming that the Google Toolbar is
setting attributes which is similar to inserting links?
The plan would be for the links to result in a local script invoking a COM
object wrapper around the TAPI interface.
Does this sound feasible? In particular, how do I get at the actual content
of the current page and is it possible to modify it along the lines I
describe?
Regards,
