Overview
Using the HtmlBox control is the way to display content that is not Visual WebGui oriented in Visual WebGui applications.
- You can provide a URL to the HtmlBox control to have it load it's contents from a specific deployed website or application. This can be done using the "Url" property of the control.
- You can provide the HtmlBox an HTML markup to render using the "Html" property of this control.
- You can also provide the HtmlBox a registration of a Visual WebGui Gateway that will dynamically load contents into the control based on custom logic. This can be done using the "Resource" property of the control.
Availability
The HtmlBox is one of the Out of the Box standard controls, which means it is free and available in all Visual WebGui versions.
