Editing Web Browser

{{Wikify}}
==Description==
The browsers are derivated from open source code. See: [[Licensing]] and [[Online Connections]]

When started from the XMB Internet browser shortcut in the Network column, the browser system plugin launched is webrender_plugin.sprx. When started from XML Link , the plugin used to start Silk is webbrowser_plugin.sprx. Curiously the list of associated plugins loaded at the same time as the browser varies with webbrowser & webrender even though in practice there doesn't seem to be any major difference between the 2.

==Engines==
<div style="float:right">[[File:Webbrowser engine selector.png|400px|thumb|right|Webbrowser engine selector]]</div>
There are 3 types of web browser, from older to newer loaded from dev_flash/vsh/resource/'''silk''', dev_flash/vsh/resource/'''silk_nas''', and dev_flash/vsh/resource/'''silk_webkit'''

*Notes/Speculation
**Silk (doesnt supports Java script), used in:
***LINK.XML
***In-game Web browser in PS3 Games. After closing browser it can return to the same point in the game
**WebKit (supports Java script), used in:
***Internet Search, or XMB options on Game column when a game is unlighted (using parameter TITLE) ?
***"what's news" (message: "You are launching an internet website")
**Both, used in:
***Online Instruction Manuals and Internet Browser

==Interfacing with webbrowser==

===From plugins===

===From LINK.XML===
{{Boxframe1|content=
{{Boxcode|title=LINK.XML (sample)|code=<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<link ver="1.0">
<url>http://www.ps3devwiki.com</url>
</link>
</syntaxhighlight>}}
*<link ver>
**Other version values doesnt seems to have any effect
*<url>
**Malformed or missing url starts the browser with an '''about: blank''' page
}}

Used in [[PARAM.SFO]] category '''WT''' (and all '''BOOTABLE''' content installed in HDD ?) to create a XMB link with a url that will be launched using the Silk core (silk.sprx?) of the [[Web Browser]] (webbrowser_plugin.sprx?)

The file LINK.XML is placed in the same path than the PARAM.SFO next to it at '''dev_hdd0/game/<TITLE_ID>/'''. There is no USRDIR folder and there is no EBOOT.BIN but the PARAM.SFO needs to be marked as "BOOTABLE" (it boots the web browser using the url as parameter)

It seems is not posible to create a folder containing 2 bootable items (EBOOT.BIN, and LINK.XML)...when trying to boot it the XMB displays the error message: '''this service has ended'''

==Debugging==
By enabling '''[[xRegistry.sys]]/setting/browser/debugMenu''' the webbrowser creates a log at path '''dev_usb0/webbrowser.txt'''. see http://www.psx-place.com/threads/ps3-browser-debugmenu.15134/
