I wanted a dynamic webpage to be loaded into "MFC Web browser control", is there any way to do this ?

Normally for browser control, the parameter of variable.navigate is the URL, but I need to pass an HTML page as input for the control, is this possible?

maybe this would help[^]
see the part where they refer to IWebBrowser2::Navigate.
Instead of asking for user input in edit control, you can hard-code it.

Not sure, I understand his problem as follows : he does not want to pass a URL or a file, but the content as a string containing HTML code = what he calls an "HTML page", hence my answer.

even i was not sure so i asked him in comments ... i saw the vc++ and mfc tags so i thought IWebBrowser2 made sense here.

it's MFC Web-browser control,
I passed HTML file path as input in navigate function it worked for me.
