Send Feedback

The IESample user interface has many of the features of Internet Explorer 6 for Windows, including forward and backward navigation, Favorites, and Search. The following illustration shows the default IESample window.

If you are creating a custom container application, it is strongly recommended that you use the IESample source code or IESimple for a full-screen application as your starting point, adding or removing features as needed. For example, you may want to add online help; IESample does not automatically include an online help system. If your OS design includes the HTML help engine, you can modify the IESample code to include a Help button on the menu bar to launch the HTML help system. For information about adding end-user help to your application, see User Help.

Alternatively, you can add a simple online help system by creating a Help button on the menu bar that opens an HTML file that contains user help information. The help page can contain a navigation button to close the help page, or the user can use the Back button on the browser itself to navigate to the original page.

The following list shows the functionality that the IESample application includes:

  • Displays the current security zone in the browser status bar. For information about adding the URL security zone status to IESample, see Displaying the Current Security Zone.
  • Displays the security lock icon when the user visits a secure Web site that automatically sends its security certificate.
  • Includes the Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P) user interface that filters cookies based on a user's decision to accept, prompt, or reject cookies.
  • Includes a user interface to block popup windows. A popup blocking icon is displayed in the status bar when a popup is blocked. For more information about popup blocking interfaces, see Using the Popup Blocker Interfaces.
  • Implements theme support so that you can apply Microsoft® Windows® XP visual style to the intrinsic Internet Explorer controls such as scrollbars, buttons, and edit boxes. For more information about theme support programming elements, see Theme Support Reference.
  • Implements the AutoComplete functionality that completes entries on Web pages by displaying a list of previous matching entries.
