Hi, Im trying to catch a new window in an embedded web browser with WxWidgets.

To do that, I catch the EVT_ACTIVEX_IE_NEWWINDOW2 event, and in that I create a new frame and a browser and return it in ppDisp like this:

sub evt_newwin 
    {
          
        $f= Wx::Frame->new( $mainframe, -1, 'New window' );
        $b = Wx::ActiveX::IE->new( $f , -1 );        
        $event = $_[1];    
        $event->{'ppDisp'}=$b;        
        $f->Show;    
    }

The problem with the above code is that it doesn't work :) The frame shows, there seems to be a browser in it, but then the program simply crashes (no error message).

What am I missing?
