Load website into frame?

I have been trying to find a way to display a webpage in a frame (page uses flash too). Is this possible?

Not possible. Addons are limited to telling the in-game browser which of the predefined Blizzard pages (eg. knowledge base, ticket list, or a specific ticket) to display, via specific API methods like HelpBrowser:OpenTicket(...) or HelpBrowser:NavigateHome(...). You cannot load arbitrary URLs.

Ok thank you for the quick response. Is there anyway to load an interactive flash file (i.e. not just an animation)?


edit: a .swf file packaged with the addon

No, it would be incredibly unsafe.

And WoW does not use flash.
