I can think of these two approaches:
* Write it completely in java. Java-applets work. That wouldn't use libcurl
at all then of course.
* Write a plugin that your browser can use for whatever purpose you can think
of. This can of course do anything but it'll force you to supply binary
plugins for every possible user.
