IE 4.0 : Browser Extension Mechanism
IE 4.0 allows programmers to add extensions to the browser or
the desktop and this document gives you a quick overview of those
extension mechanisms.
- BrowserBar extension: This
mechanism allows programmers to add a band (an UI
component which is hosted by an explorer bar, a
communication bar or a deskbar) to the IE browser window.
- Browser Helper extension: This
mechanism allows programmers to add a helper object
(typically invisible) to each browser window to add some
capabilities to the browser or perform some operations
(such as monitoring user's navigation and etc.).
- Dicardable Browser Property:
We enhanced the property mechanism of the browser so that
programmers can easily pass data across page boundary.
