The Generic HTML Browser functions work with Chrome, Firefox and MS Edge. From version 7.6, the Generic HTML Library works with these browsers in parallel (that is, with multiple browsers of different types open simultaneously).
To use the Generic HTML Connector, capture at least one screen element in your project. This enables the the ScreenPluginGenericHtml.Library in the project.
To enable Firefox and Microsoft Edge to use the functions in the Generic HTML Browser library, set the Browser Name property in the Generic HTML Browser business entity.
To view the functions, open the ScreenPluginGenericHtml.Library under Project > References > Library References and select Generic HTML Browser.
