Andargor, you've said you're building a browser because of the PITA's with cross-browser javacript... I'm guessing that you're not interested in frame issues, then?
In both Konqueror and Firefox, the left side has a bunch of frames created that seem to be empty. Looking at the HTML, I don't see an obvious connection between the code and what I see on the screen. I was going to offer to troubleshoot it and see if I could get it working, but if you're going to create a separate browser it's probably moot, eh?
I noticed in the email you sent (I've made correction contributions in the past), that you mention using wxWidgets. That's probably a good choice, given that it's cross-platform. And it's totally free, which Java isn't (that's "free as in freedom", not "free as in beer").
Does the wxWidgets framework include an HTML rendering agent? Otherwise, you'd need to choose gecko or KHTML or something. (I seem to recall KHTML being ported to Windoze. And gecko is in Mozilla -- and also Firefox -- so those will be available on Windoze also.) It's also possible to use Qt4 from TrollTech, but I'm not thrilled with their licensing...
Thanks for the update!
