The Browser Bean is a Servoy bean that enables you to show a (native) browser in a Servoy Form.
Here is a screenshot of the Bean in action, where it shows MS Explorer in a Servoy form after loading a well-know URL via a Servoy method:
Once the user dropped a document file or URL onto the form (or in fact the Browser Bean), the browser will open the requested URL.
The Browser Bean relies on the MediaManager Bean for interaction with the User Interface and the DataStream Plug-in for data transfers between the client and the server.
Because of the mentioned dependencies you need to own or buy licenses for both the MediaManager Bean and the DataStream Plug-in additionally to the Browser Bean.
If you already own a license for these two you can purchase an 'upgrade' from the MediaManager Bean to the Browser Bean.
