Hi, I have a strange question. I wanted to know if htmlviewer could load content stored in memory.That is, if I store HTML5 code in memory, can it be loaded later?

Are you storing it in a memory block? Sure you should be able to load that data later…

Don’t need a memory block either. You can store it in a string.

Didn’t you look in the Doc? It’s explicitly stated there.

There is more than one Load method associated with the HTMLViewer. One LoadURL for loading from a remote server. Two others LoadPage( FolderItem ) and LoadPage( String, FolderItem ). Examine both.

LoadPage(Source As String, Base As FolderItem

Just learning about the HTMLViewer. I did not see this explicitly stated anywhere, but although the Base parameter cannot be omitted, the following will work if Base is nil.

Var myHTML As String `= “ Hello “`  
`HTMLViewer1.LoadPage(myHTML, Nil)`
