[DUG] Delphi (Embedded)WebBrowser Component

[Graham Marsden]

Thanks for the responses.
I had already found out about the extra '/'.
My problem is with just one user and the fact that TWebBrowser does depend
on IE and so inherits the settings of the local IE configuration which
seems to be the issue at the moment.
TEmbeddedWebBrowser .... The most up to date download I have found is for
XE only, are there later versions available XE2, XE5 ?
Regards
Graham
