blueberryCoffee has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Greeting and salutations most wizened wise ones,

I seek to place the most cursed of abominations, the spawn of Bil'I Gatorus, the harbinger of pestilence, the demon Internet Explorer into that most homely, cozy, fully appointed and always welcome messenger of justice, the champion of the low, the most humble of the high, the beloved tk::frame.

In this said quest then do I seek wisdom contained only in the gathering of so many so great; for though our servant OLE doth do his mighty best he, and yea even I, know not the ways and wanderings that leadith to such doors of tk::frame, that whereupon reaching may we thrust the demon into such confines, of which he be not a tenth part worthy, lest he foul the desktop and thus bring about a most saddened user.

Many thanks Gracious Wise Ones

Want to put IE into a Tk::Frame,
I think I use OLE
I can't seem to get anything to work.
Please advise

    I'll attempt a post with broken english: Not sure whether you can do that easily. But perl/tk itself comes with a simple browser called tkweb (it's installed in perl/bin with ActiveState), I always have that one crashing on me, so not really whether it works or not. This lack of a standard browser widget is one thing I feel really lacking about perl/tk. Other gui packages like: perl/wxWidgets and the win32::UI have that since they simply wrap the native controls.
