NWJS frame for IE Edge?

See original GitHub issue

IE Edge has an option: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1" />

screen-2 Can we embed NWJS (frameless window inside the IE Edge page html pages like Flash or Silverlight?)?

Unfortunately its retired https://blog.chromium.org/2013/06/retiring-chrome-frame.html

EDIT:

C++ BHO: http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/win/com/bho.html Qt5 BHO: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/activeqt-index.html

@baconbrad :

  1. Nothing is impossible. we have solved all challenges. lets not be afraid with such a little thing. instead lets motivate to make it happen…

  2. Temasys already implemented BHO (Closed source) for IE Edge, if they can? sure NWJS can do more better cause we are open source community. (lets be practical for real world challenges to accept, when there is will there is always a way…)

You are still misunderstanding the metatags and browsers here. There is no IE Edge. Just IE and Edge. IE was the only one that allowed Chrome frame. ie=edge has nothing to do with Edge. It is to tell IE to use the latest renderer. And it is not possible because the extensions in Edge do not allow this type of embedding (nor Silverlight or Java). You would have to really hack at Edge (which is not open source) to get this to work. This is way beyond the scope and possibilities of the NW.js team.
