HTMLayout (~750k, free, Win98+, WinCE)
Don't know why I missed this apparently already quite old free control.
It looks very good.
| Quote: | | HTMLayout is free for commercial and non-commercial use but if you are planning to do serious design we would like you to consider buying technical support option, it is not that expensive. |
| Quote: | HTMLayout uses its own lightweight HTML rendering engine which gives your applications:
Fast HTML rendering with very short readiness times.
HTML and CSS enhanced for screen layout tasks. %% units and expandable backgrounds allow to use more flexible and "screen oriented" layout schemas.
Custom behaviors API allow you to define how HTML elements will be drawn, react on keyboard and mouse events.
Low level interaction with the host application. No intermediate component technologies involved. Just pure API calls, like in any other native Windows common controls. HtmLayout uses WM_NOTIFY mechanism for interacting with the host window.
Small distribution size: HtmLayout.dll is about 600KB uncompressed.
No dependencies from installed browsers on client PC. |
It has some very nice demos. Advanced layouts are done with CSS and "CSSS", its own "scripting language".
You can use it as a browser, but it has no support for JavaScript, and advanced sites with heavy CSS/Ajax will not render correctly. Something like the AutoHotkey forum gets rendered very well.
Some examples from the demo:

This needs a wrapper
