Event data from WEB-BROWSER2

We are in the process of implementing the 10.5 thin-client runtime.  One of the difficulties is getting event data from a web page. 

Currently, we use an ActiveX control linked to Internet Explorer, so C$GETEVENTDATA provides what we need.  We want to use WEB-BROWSER2 and get away from ActiveX.  How do I get event data using the new browser control?

    Per the non thin client portions of your app - checkout the recently added WIN$SHELLEXECUTE library

    Thanks for your help.  If you could provide one final confirmation.  Is it accurate to say that the web-browser2 control has basically the same functionality as the web-browser control, and that the most significant change is that it is not limited to use with Internet Explorer?

    Yes, that is correct. web-browser2 is a chromium based browser. What we have done is exposed the functionality of Microsoft's WebView2 to the set of Acu UI controls.
