New release adds some experimental functions: the ability to view the source of the page (sometimes - this seems to crash on big pages), and the ability to transfer a string (which can be a stringified JSON) from Javascript to GameMaker.

Full list of new functions

chromium_request_source() [v1.2beta] EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE

Sends a request for the page source.  Once this is sent, GM code should poll chromium_check_source() to see if the source is available; once that function returns true, it can be collected with chromium_get_source()

chromium_check_source() [v1.2beta] EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE

Polls to check if source has been fetched. Returns 0 if not, returns 1 if the source is available to be collected using chromium_get_source()

chromium_get_source() [v1.2beta] EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE

Once chromium_check_source() has returned 1, chromium_get_source() will return the page source as a string.

chromium_check_transfer() [v1.2beta] EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE

In Javascript, run window.transfer(<string>); to transfer a string to gamemaker.   This function can be polled to determine if a transfer is available. This function will return 1 if there is a transfer waiting to be read, or 0 if there is no transfer available.

See Included Files/html/test.html for implementation details

WARNING: this feature only works with browsers created using chromium_create_test().

chromium_get_transfer() [v1.2beta] EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE

Once a transfer is made, and chromium_check_transfer() returns 1, the transfer string can be read with this function.

See Included Files/html/test.html for implementation details

WARNING: this feature only works with browsers created using chromium_create_test().
