Reply To: XMetaL 8.0 Enterprise: Internal browser/preview issue

[XMetaLOldTimer]

Yes, XMetaL's Page Preview is implemented by hosting the Shell IE web browser control.  XMetaL will call the control's Navigate2() API passing the BrowserURL property value that your custom script setup.

I am not sure about robustness of said script running within just the IE control versus the stand-alone IE application…but, it is unlikely that is causing your issue.  I suspect Windows Firewall or similar is blocking the XMetaL process from fetching content over http/https.
