CCP has released <\/strong><\/a>the first beta of their new ingame browser (called Moondoggie) which comes with the next upcoming winter expansion Dominion. According to the latest Dev Blog<\/strong><\/a>, it’s based on a modifcated version of the rendering engine webkit which is used by Google’s Chrome browser.<\/p>\n

As webkit is a feature rich and complete rendering engine, you can display almost modern web pages. Moondoggie is support Javascript, CSS, SVG, etc. You can even watch movies on youpor^H^H^Htube with your ingame browser while mining or waiting for your fleet.<\/p>\n

I already checked my evemaps and the svg rendering engine of webkit is producing good results as I would expect them from a modern web browser. I already added a quick test page for a new Radar<\/strong><\/a> feature that will display your current position on a map or show you system details if you’re in wormhole space. But Moondoggie is still in an early development phase.<\/p>\n

Here are some nice screenshots who the new ingame browser and evemaps are working together.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t
