HTML functions?

It appears SDL 1.3 has no functions for interacting with a website. For instance, causing a web browser to launch and load a given URL, or sending / getting data from an address. What would be a good cross-platform (iPhone, Mac, Windows) way of doing this?

For sending or getting the data, you can use (lib)curl or any similar
library. For launching external programs, only a lot of #ifdef’s will
help you. What is the relationship to HTML?Am 20.10.2010 23:55, schrieb VernJensen:
