look at links, its here and being adapted for the cvs... since your doing your own compile (prebuild downloads.... bad) just do a search here, get their cvs and work it into xbmc and compile again. might take a note on the notes and direction they have for it, but hold in mind it works... but its still in dev.

i think that it would be a great idea to put in a web browser in to xbmc if there is any one out there who thinks this is a good idea please say so and hey firefox is open source couldent you build off that

i doubt it will be intergrated at all(in too offical cvs)
read the xbmc online-manual, faq and search the forums before posting! do not e-mail the xbmc-team asking for support!
read/follow the forum rules! note! team-xbmc never have and never will host or distribute ms-xdk binaries/executables!

it would help if XBMC had a web browser in it first before we worry about how the interface looks...

I compiled a working xbmc with linksboks but linksboks is to simple and ugly looking. I was thinking that maybe somebody could code a more complex browser into xbmc, something like firefox. I want a browser that is able to play videos from youtube..... to handle flash files, java script. In other words a full browser.

When do you think a release of XBMC will include a web browser capable of watching videos (youtube, ect.) and checking email. I know many people said that this cant be done but linksboks was integrated. I compiled and links works but its a simple browser, its not like firefox.

Whats wrong with using the python script to watch youtube et al?
It would be nice to have a browser in XBMC but i dont think i would use it much personaly...
This is why i say this maybe should be in Development...
