First, you only need to post your message once in one forum ... we'll find it! Anyway, you can use the Mozilla widget. Also, there is GtkHTML, which is actually two separate widgets. GtkHTML2 includes DOM support, but GtkHTML 3 allows you to edit the code.

I've never used either, but you can easily find example code by searching http://www.google.com/codesearch/.

I haven't spent much time trying, but the gtkmozembed widget may be helpful. I'm not sure how it's packaged for Linux distros or anything though.

As for compiling the mozilla/gecko source, I can't help you there either, but can say that I have seen a lot of people complaining about it being difficult in other forums.

I'd be curious to know how it turns out for you.
