Looks like our messages "crossed in the mail". It seems the simplest fix for the book's code on the bottom of page 502 is to remove the parent argument. The remaining show-stopper for my application is that though the python-initiaed IE browser will run Javascript (with an absolute link: see below), it is unresponsive to keyboard input. If the window is too small so there is a vertical scrollbar, the up/down arrow keys will scroll, so keyboard events are being caught at a level that manages the window scrolling, not by the IE browser, as I need. html.SetFocus() does not help. Any suggestions on how to burrow in to the IE canvas so the focus can be set there? Or some other approach? Another glitch I can live with is that relative file links don't work, or are relative to something useless (not the python current directory). If that can be fixed it would be nice. Best, Chris

No, it is a listing of the constructor for the class, not a snippet of code showing how to use it. So the self parameter should be removed because what you need to pass to the constructor is a parent window for the html control, that is how similar things are shown elsewhere in the book. (The confusion you are having is that in the context of using the class the parent window is often called self because you are creating it in the constructor (or __init__) of the parent window.) > > The remaining show-stopper for my application is that though the > python-initiaed IE browser will run Javascript (with an absolute link: > see below), it is unresponsive to keyboard input.

How do you load the initial page? I don't use this control very much myself but I think that if you are loading from a string or a stream then there is no context for IE to use to figure out how to find a relative link. If you instead load the initial page with LoadURL() then I think it should work. -- Robin Dunn Software Craftsman http://wxPython.org Java give you jitters?

If you instead load the initial page with LoadURL() then I think it should work. wxWidgets-2.6.3 with Python2.4 That fixed the rel link problem. Thanks a lot! Best, Chris
