XAML浏览器窗口控件

Question

We are running a Windows application built with XAML and C#.

We are using the web browser control as part of our application in which we are feeding a webpage into it controlled controlled in our CMS so we can control the content of the webpage.

I did an alert to see what version the built in browser was for our XAML project. The browser ended up being MSIE 7. BIG NO NO. We want to be able to use some more modern web languages like HTML 5 that feeds the page.

Is there a way to update the browser window IE version or a way to tell the browser window control to use Chrome or other browser instead of the default one?

Thanks.

As far as I remember in WinForms, the WebBrowser version was the same as the version of IE installed on that machine, I'm assuming it's still the same in WPF. And no, you can't change the default control to use Chrome. There is however, a .NET implementation of Chromium which according to its documentation supports HTML5 as well.
