[Qt-interest] remove border and scrollbars from Microsoft Web Browser ActiveX control

[Michael Schneider]

I found a workaround via css but its still not satisfying:

<style type="text/css">
body {
overflow:hidden;
border:0px solid #000000;
}
</style>

still hoping that there will be a better solution
