Embedding Browser into LV Panel

[Cepera]

I am developing a kiosk-style application running on an embedded PC, and  I don't want the user to be able to use any OS feature or start any  program outside of my LabVIEW application; meanwhile I need to embed an  HTML-based help file into the front panel of my app.

Is there any mechanism/container that would allow me to embed a browser into the front panel of my program on Linux? Something similar to ActiveX and .NET containers on Windows? If not, is there any other mechanism on Linux for embedding rich text?

I know that I can use a system call to start Firefox as a separate application, but ideally I would like to avoid it.

Thanks all,

Sergey

Unfortunately there is no equivalent to ActiveX or .Net embeddable components on Linux. There's just no standard mechanism for doing that. I don't think we have a rich text control either, unfortunately.
