Embed a browser in Flex

Question

Anyone know of any documentation that would help me with trying to embed a web browser component into adobe flex.

I've seen in Adobe Air that there is a Item; however, in Adobe Flex 3 for a .swf file that would be somewhere - I do not see it.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Only Air has that capability built in.

However there is a very good-looking component that you can find here: http://drumbeatinsight.com/

It is paid-for though.

Open source solutions are here
