Forum: Ruby-Gnome 2 Anyone know of a current HTML widget?

I've had a look around and found Gtk::HtmlView, Gtk::HtmlEmbedded and
Gtk::MozEmbed but they all seem to be rather old.

Does anyone know of an up-to-date widget that would work with Ruby 1.9
and the latest gtk2 bindings?

Thanks,
Phil

Those choices you listed never really existed.  If you look at all the 
methods, they mostly say:  "returns self, FIXME"  so they were never 
functional, I think.

The MozEmbed looks like it will work, but its far from being a full 
featured browser.

You could run a shell command like this:

'firefox http://www.google.com'
