Lua Website Control

Hi Guys,

I'm playing about with Lua at the moment and wondering if its possible to show a website in a warcraft frame via Lua?

I don't need any back/forward or even refresh control. Just the ability to display a website via a slash command and refresh on open.

Cheers in advance for any code snips

Heh.

Windowed mode + dual monitor = what you want to be able to do.

Well, not everyone has enough money for dual screen, but windowed mode and alt+tab is enough I don't know the exact changes on the performances, but most players can probably use windowed mode and have a browser up in background (takes some memory for sure, but well... it would even if it was an in-game browser).
