I know some of the examples from the book are no longer current, but I cannot recall if the HtmlWindow one was one of them or not. You can ask at the wxPython users group. Robin Dunn (one of the authors of the book) is one of the moderators there. http://wxpython.org/maillist.php I recommend using the examples in the wxPython Demo as they are usually the most current.
