>>>Both ways are certainly workable, but AFAIK support only older Javascript - something like 6 years or a dog live...
>>>Going for V8 Javascript probably is more future oriented - there should be 4 ways to accomplish this:
>>>- Dotnet with WebView2

>>>- vfp with some C glue with CefSharp (Christoph / Foxpert has already implemented basic connection)
>>>- Selenium with its Choice of browsers but even more awkward interface (needing another connection layer)
