Riassunto:

• The Microsoft Developer Network (http://msdn.microsoft.com): MSDN is a big online help file used by many developers when creating applications for the Windows operating system. IE has a fair amount of documentation, articles, and videos online, especially with the release of IE 9. • The Code Project (www.thecodeproject.com): The Code Project is a well-known resource for aspiring developers of IE extensions and applications. There are a large number of tutorials, open source examples, and completed projects that guide users through creating the most common extensions for the browser in a variety of languages. Microsoft CodePlex (www.codeplex.com): CodePlex is Microsoft’s open source project site. It provides developers with storage, versioning, promotion, and communication resources for open source development projects. If you are looking for a place to post your IE projects, this is a great option. xxii C H A P T E R 1 ? ? ? Internet Explorer Architecture Internet Explorer (IE) isn’t just a web browser—it’s a broad platform that provides Windows with the components necessary to integrate web services with desktop applications. Its complex architecture and extensibility points reflect this, as well as the number of applications that tie into it. In this chapter, I present a general overview of the internal and external makeup of IE, describe the architecture of the browser and its libraries, and lay the informational groundwork for detailed discussion of major feature areas and development using exposed interfaces.
