True AHK Class: Lbbrowse3.dll

This is my instructional tutorial that will explain how I use lbbrowse3 to load an IE window in an Ahk Gui.

Example Lbbrowse3 I – Club Live Selector

Name = [FLPO] Club Live Selector

Basic Controls:
DLLCall("lbbrowse3\CreateBrowser","uInt",GuiID,"In t",XIE,"Int",YIE,"Int",WIE,"Int",HIE,"Str",Url,"In t",1) ;Creates browser, sets, size, location, and starting url.
DllCall("LoadLibrary", "str", "lbbrowse3.dll") ;Nessacary to use lbbrowse3.dll
DllCall("lbbrowse3\ShowStatusbar","Int",0) ;Hide the statusbar.
DllCall("lbbrowse3\Navigate", "str", Url) ;Navigate the internet.
(I'll add some more upon request)

This is a simple script that will show you how to Navigate from one page to another. You can use lbbrowse for many things. One advantage is that this makes everyones display the same since you are creating the browser.
