Internet Explorer 6 for Windows Embedded CE is the most desktop-compatible browser for the Windows Embedded CE operating system. Select this browser when you are building a run-time image that will provide full Internet access, such as an Internet appliance or an interactive television that offers browsing capabilities.
You can use the Internet Explorer COM interfaces to build a custom browser or to add browser controls to an application. Or, you can use the sample Internet Explorer container application source files (IESample.*) to create a browser shell and user interface designed specifically for your target device. The browser host supports pointing devices and 5-key navigational systems in addition to keyboard and touch screen input.
The browser can render documents that contain HTML, Dynamic HTML, and CSS data formats. XML support is available if the MSXML parser is included in the OS design. As a scripting host, Internet Explorer supports Microsoft JScript® 5.6 and Microsoft Visual Basic® Scripting Edition, Microsoft VBScript® 5.6, when these Catalog items are included in an OS design.
