How to view .net application in chrome or firefox browser - vb.net

I wrote project using vb.net with devexpress forms , my question is there way to view my applicatin in browser like java applet or oracle forms.

I don't think it is possible to run an executable file built for windows could run in a browser independently. JAVA is platform independent that's why we are able to run JAVA apps in browser, even we cannot run android apps directly into browser, we have to have complete android emulator device to run android apps. In the same way, we cannot run executable files directly into browser, because they are generated with respect to underline hardware platform

Safari 12 Extensions and NativeMessaging

With the release of Safari 12, Safari will no longer support NPAPI plugins. My use case is to be able to launch a java application located on a client from a browser extension which I can currently do in Chrome and Firefox with NativeMessaging. From my reasearch, I do not see a way to do this in Safari 12. The closest I can see is their "Safari App Extension" project but this looks like it requires that you package up your native app with the extension and distribute it through the App Store. I am not at all a Mac developer so I am looking for some advice. Does anyone know if Safari supports my use case?
We can create a extension that will download our dmg app with the native code.And run the dmg app after it is getting downloaded.
Then we can place our extension in the safari extension gallery.
We have implemented it in the similar way where our extension look for the json file which in turns download the DMG app that we have kept in the server.

Is it possible to run embedded WebKit on Windows Phone?

There we have an web app developed for Android and iPhone (using webview). It is based on Sencha Touch 1.1.1. Thus it runs only on WebKit based browsers, and not on Internet Explorer. I want it to run it on Windows Phone, thus I need to run WebKit (not IE) inside the app (as webview).
Is it possible to build a Windows app with webview which used WebKit?

Android build: Fennec with chromium rendering Engine

I built the chromium for android following these instructions https://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/AndroidBuildInstructions .
I got the content shell only not the full browser.
Then, I built the Firefox for Android. I successfully got the Full web browser. But the performance of the chrome content shell was much much better than that of Firefox Android build. Now, I want to try building the Firefox Android using chromium rendering Engine, Blink replacing the Gecko rendering Engine. How much is the difficulty level and how can I start.
Thanks,
Chromium uses Blink (earlier Webkit) as its rendering, and V8 for Javascript interpretation along with various 3rd party dependencies. Even though Content shell is a small browser (sans complex UI of Chromium) it is functional and a wrapper over Blink. Having said that fitting Blink with Firefox (instead of Gecko) will be a new project by itself, probably you can try building Webview, so that you can build a simple browser itself in android. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html
Chromium - Open Source project
Chrome- Google's proprietary software + Chromium
In Android only Google Chrome can be installed as APK, wherease Chromium can be built as content shell or used through WebView

Appcelerator Apps don't work in Firefox and Chrome but work in IE

I have problem as following. I use a Titanium Studio, build: 3.1.1.201306112235 with SDK 3.1.1 GA (on Windows 7). When I try to run example app as "Mobile Web Preview in Browser", then I saw mobile app in my Firefox (version 21.0) but any actions associated with 'clicks' don't work. Furthermore when I try run the same app in Chrome I see the same behaviour. Only in Internet Explorer app works properly (version 10). Do you have idea why apps from Titanium don't work properly? If you would like to get some more logs just ask.
EDIT: I provide remote access, and reopen page by Firefox in the same version on my colleague's laptop. Then in here browser everything works well. So i have question which settings, on my browser can "freezing" titanium application. Javascript is running, so I don't have idea, what is bad in my configuration.
This sounds like you are making web service calls to a remote host, which violates the same-origin-policy built into recent versions of chrome.
Try opening up chrome with this policy disabled:
chrome.exe --disable-web-security
