Hello All,

Does html5 function postmessage() is supported by SWTBrowser widget ?
Is there a way to add a listener to it which can handle the message event .

Thanks,
Sumy

The Browser supports whatever HTML capabilities its native renderer
supports. For instance, I've verified that postMessage() works if a
Browser's underlying renderer is XULRunner 10 (corresponds to Firefox
10). However this would not work if the renderer was XULRunner 1.9.x or
IE9.

For an example of adding a JS listener to a Browser that notifies the
java side when it is invoked see
http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.git/tree/examples/org.eclipse.swt.snippets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet362.java
