How to pack JavaScript as a .NET Internet Explorer 9 plugin?

How is the .NET JavaScript package as an Interner Explorer 8/9 plugin with JS that will be included in all pages of IE browser?

I recently finished writing JavaScript code for a browser addon that mainly works on page loading through the JS download event listener, and for these domains it checks certain elements in the DOM and adds new relevant elements (i.e. information) to the page.

Since JavaScript only reads / affects the HTML DOM on its own (and does not require any toolbar buttons or anything else), JS just requires adding a browser to the web pages.

I packed the code for working with Firefox and Chrome, and they both work well, and I can run the code for IE in the form of a bookmarklet without any problems, but I would like to know how to pack JavaScript as the actual .NET.MSI addon / plugin, which will be installed for the current Internet Explorer 8/9.

Does anyone know of a suitable guide or method that I can talk about, please? I tried searching the Internet for tutorials, but most walkthroughs are about writing the plug-in module itself (usually in other languages) and, therefore, not about packaging existing JS.

I hope someone can have a solution?

Note. Someone packaged the old version for me as an MSI installer for Internet Explorer 7 years ago, which was installed in Program Files using plugin.dll plugin.tlb and plugin.InstallState plus BandObjectLib.dll Interop.SHDocVw.dll and Microsoft.mshtml.dll if it is useful.

Edit: Does anyone else know any other options?

Check out http://www.add-in-express.com/programming-internet-explorer/ and http://www.add-in-express.com/programming-internet-explorer/deployment.php they sell the package for this . It will cost you $ 200, but it will save you time (at least it saved me some time :)).

IE has no mechanism for this; there simply is no JavaScript-based extension ecosystem (although there are other ways to create extensions) for these browsers. IE8 won't get it, you can pretty much guarantee that IE9 ... we'll see what happens.

The closest JavaScript option available to you will be bookmarklets , which have much more limited functionality ... but that's what is available.
