I'm making a Cubs themed Web Browser, and I have finished 2 betas so far. The second beta (as well as the first) are available for download at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cubsbrowser/files/

Tell me what you think..

But, remember it is a BETA

P.S. I made this before CCS opened, all I did is add a StartUp Loading Page this time. I'll add a CCS Link in the next edition.

I still need to make the installer make a desktop icon, but it automatically runs the program after installation.

I will make it make a desktop icon next time.

It's not bad. Needs a lot of work yet, but not bad. Are you using Visual Studio 2008?

I started with Visual Studio 2008 (Visual Basic to be exact), but I made the changes from Beta 1 to Beta 2 using Visual Basic 2010, since it came out recently.

Any suggestions?

I personally would start using some java script and html to make it do more. Granted that is a ways down the line but it does what you need it to do for now. You can keep expanding on it more and more. Make the viewing area bigger, I didn't dive into looking at code for it so I don't know how big you set the window pane, but that is another thing you can set with java. Just play around with it and keep working on it, it's coming along fine.

Ok, thanks. How do I use the JavaScript and HTML to program into VB though?

I wasn't thinking when I told you that. I was thinking of it being made with Java. But there should still be a way to do it. Not sure how at the moment though. I will look around and ask a couple of programmers I know and get back to you. I will also take a look at the code.

cool, and since you seem to know a bit about programming, if you have any code snippets or anything for me to add, I can.
