I realize that IE now hosts the Common Language Runtime and that you
can host Windows Forms controls in IE6 the way you can host ActiveX
controls and Java applets. I originally got excited thinking that I
could write my IE scripts in C# and avoid the use of JavaScript. Then
sanity struck, and I realized that you would need far more than just
the CLR for that to happen.
Nevertheless I am wondering if I could not achieve much of the same
results by pushing all my logic into a very very smart Window Forms
control that just gets invoked from a very little bit of JavaScript.
The application that I am thinking about uses Javascript and XSLT to
do data manipulation and display on the IE6 client.
Any opinions?
Thanks
