That's a better solution.

There is TRichEdit component included with Delphi. See https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/Libraries/Athens/en/Vcl.ComCtrls.TRichEdit

Agreed.

Angus, you make a really great work building this FAQ Order SSL Certificates. We all thank you!

Same here: normal response time.

Angus, Notification() is called when a child component is destroyed (Among other operations), allowing the owner component to cleanup what is necessary. For example, this is the mechanism by which a form gets notified when a component owned by the form is destroyed. The form may then remove the destroyed component from his control list.

SHDOCVW Shell Document Object and Control Library (shdocvw.dll) is part of Internet Explorer. Using the old TWebBrowser will require it.

It is still very slow for me. I'm in Belgium if it matters.

I looked at your source. I don't see any message loop. That is REQUIRED for ICS component to work. In a GUI application you have one automatically but in a console application you must create one. As Angus said, look at the sample OverbyteIcsConHttp.dprwhich has a message loop. No message loop, no async event...

Use GetTickCount64 in the unit Winapi.Windows. It returns the number of milliSec elapsed since the computer has been powered on.

Yes, you did. To be clear, you need an Android tablet with ARM CPU. To test your application, you need a relatively recent tablet so that it runs the latest Android version. If you buy a reconditioned one, pay attention to which Android it runs. Delphi 12 “officially” supports Android 8.1 and higher. Delphi 12.3 officially supports up to Android 15 (API level 35). This is required for Google Play Store apps.

Do you mean you want to tablet to have a Win11 operating system and you want to run Delphi on the tablet? Most tablets have an ARM CPU and run Android or iPadOS. Delphi 12 cannot run on a ARM CPU, unless the virtual machine emulating an Intel processor is run above the the OS. In my opinion, this is not possible with a table under $150. There are tablet PCs having an Intel processor but their price is much more than $150. They are not in the "cheap" category you are asking. Google is your friend to find them.
