Hi John,
It depends on the platform.
Windows may use IE's or Firefox's web rendering engine, while the Mac will use
Webkit. On Linux you can use Firefox's engine and I think Webkit's rendering
engine as well.
Going back to this, what does everyone think about the idea I mentioned a good
ways back about BB as a web application.
We could also take the approach of building BB as a self-contained web
application, but still include native menu options in the menu bar.
Regards,
