One more thing: I can't see why you have to save your files in a private data cage. Even Browser Control's Download Manager doesn't do that.

Have you explored the following things:
- TBrCtlCapabilities::ECapabilityClientResolveEmbeddedURL and TBrCtlCapabilities::ECapabilityClientNotifyURL ==> maybe you could have stronger influence on how Browser Control downloads files (embedded or not),
- CBrCtlInterface::SetSelfDownloadContentTypesL ==> if you want BrCtl not to consume html content itself, then you might want to change this behavior,
- MBrCtlLoadEventObserver and MBrCtlDataLoadConsumer mixins ==> you might want to be well-informed on what is happening inside the Browser Control.

Let me know what you could figure out based on above mentioned information!

Hi thanks for the answer , its not possible with the browser application. But the problem using with HTTP client is that every time we need to save the page some where in a kind of private folder and then launch the browser.
Other problem is that if we open the page in the browser again and send some data say like the waywhen we create a yahoo or a mail account then control goes back to the browser api, which then send the data back to the listening server and its then redirects you to some other page (which again has to be filtered ) so the same problem continues as now we are in browser api now .

What about fetching the page with HTTP Client API, saving the file locally, and opening it with browser API?

Girish,

I don't think it's possible with the Browser Control API what you're looking for. You know, the API expects a URL from you and download everything - it's its sole responsibility to handle both downloading AND rendering. I'm not aware of any APIs that makes it possible to have any influence on this filtering method you're looking for.
