I am looking through the samples and I have yet to come across an example of loading a local HTML file that contains embedded JavaScript inside it. Something like, along with several others for the project on the main index.html page.

<script>src="angular.js"</script>

I am sure there must be a way to accomplish this, similar to how you could do it in CefSharp, where I got it working fairly quickly(unfortunately it was extremely memory intensive which was not going to work).

Basically I want to load the HTML file similarly to how one would do it in ASP.Net but without actually having to have a server, just read the file off the disk and load it into the DotNetBrowser along with any scripts it needs to load that are on the page.

I loaded it up and went into the debugging window and it appears to have loaded a lot of the scripts, but angular didn't load and it threw an error about chrome.app extensions not being available.

from the debugger Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It is necessary to disable web security and allow file access for DotNetBrowser. This can be done via the Chromium command-line switches. The following article explains how to pass these switches to DotNetBrowser:

The --disable-web-security and --allow-file-access-from-files switches will turn off the same-origin policy and allow file access from HTML.

  • Thanks! I actually came across that a few hours before I read your answer, but it has fixed it and everything is working great now! – MattE Feb 01 '17 at 18:06
