HTML - Desktop Browser
So I'm developing a kind of desktop that u use by any browser.
The idea of this is that you can find files and go thru files easy and do other things at the same time. In a new design. So I have a test site that gives you an idea on how it going to look. I am a rookie when it comes to coding and such so it's a simple site. Please come with tips and stuff that I should add. here is the test website. http://jaegarn.webs.com/ It all started yesterday when internet was shut down for one hour and I was bored When im developing this now I'm making it in swedish but it's easy to translate it and if somone wants I could translate it for it's release to english. So ya come with suggestions on what I should add and tips Over N Out JaegarN Similar TutorialsA company website I went to gives the user the option of downloading a program, the purpose I believe is to open a browser and automatically log the user into their online account at www.companysite.com. The user simply double-clicks an icon on the desktop which lauches the browser, etc. How can I do this? Anyone have a link to a fre script? Thanks! Chris I would like have the HTML code for my web pages that will put my tiger icon on my page shortcuts that I save to my desktop. I believe its an attribute in the body tag such as: <body logo=""> or something like that. When I put a web page shortcut on my desktop an icon for that page appears above the name. I can not find the correct tags by sourcing the page. When I save this page to my desktop an icon displays above the name. Please help. Thanks Walt I have heard that it is possible to put a webpage on the desktop of a computer that has windows. Is it also possible to do this in linux? What I would like to do is to put a whole series of pull down menus on the desktop - one menu group would be for educational programs, one for Open office programs, etc. I would like to do this to get away from the whole nesting windows thing. Is it possible? easy? Hi, You know how sometimes websites with ever changing content (like stock market quotes, price of gold, etc) offer snippets of code that you can put on your own website to show charts/prices/etc? I was just wondering if there was a way to get that code to run on my desktop to show that changing content? It would only be a box approx 270 x 110 pixels if it was on a webpage, hopefully the same size on the desktop. The piece of code in question is: <A HREF="http://www.kitco.com/connecting.html"> <IMG SRC="http://www.kitconet.com/images/sp_en_6.gif" BORDER="0" ALT="[Most Recent Quotes from www.kitco.com]"> </A> I've searched thru the forum but found nothing that answers this question. Is there something out there that will take the html code and convert it into, say, an exe that will then run on the desktop? TIA Hey there guys... I've been trying to make an HTML program that opens programs I direct it to. Now I have the layout all correct, it looks almost like a control panel with my most commonly used programs. I put hyper links on the pictures, but when I click on the picture that dialog box keeps opening! It's getting a bit irritating... Is there a way I can make them open with out keep clicking on open or save in the dialog box. I can't get notepad opened either! This is not web based just for my PC if that makes anything any easier! Also if there anything in JAVA that will be cool. I saw something to do with PERL but I cannot run the code on my PC, I think thats only web based and the coding is way to complicated! Thanks I've got a bunch of tel: links on a site that work great with mobiles and desktops that have softphones but how can I tell the browser to not treat it like a dead link if no such application exists? Here's an example - clik on any phone number: http://sketch.uk.com/admin_contacts.php?menu=8 I have a client that I just built a website for. This website is viewed by many different people. The client is wondering if it is possible to have a link somewhere on the site that automatically downloads an image icon to the users desktop. Once this icon is in place on the users desktop, they can click that icon when they want to go back to the web site. He also stated he'd like an app button created for mobile devices. I think he's thinking these icons are one in the same. But from what little I know about creating an app, you need to know the Objective C language and the only way someone can get it is through an app store. He wants both windows and Mac users to be able to use this. Is this possible, or how should I go about approaching this another way to achieve the same thing? Thanks for any help or direction. I am trying to figure out how the user can click ANYWHERE on the webpage, and it will execute the 'Show Desktop' command (like in the quicklaunch -- for windows XP). The webpage will be used as the desktop background. I want the user to be able to click on the desktop background, and all other windows will become minimized. An onclick function perhaps, or something that executes "Windows key + M"? Please help, this is for my job lol Hi everyone. I need some advice. I currently run a website for the local snooker league here, http://www.ldbsa.co.uk, and I have a mobile version of the site, http://mobile.ldbsa.co.uk. Currently these are two separate sites, with a PHP script running on the pages to determine what browser and device is being used, and being re-directed to the mobile site should you be on a mobile device. My main issue with this is that I have to update both websites separately, as they are two compeltely independent websites, both pulling the same data in from a MySQL database though. What I would like to do, is to have the same website for both, with a different stylesheet loading depending on the device. This obviously has its advantages in that I only have to update the site once, but the disadvantages come when coding the site. One other method I though about doing is to turn virtually all areas of the site into database driven, including menu items, headers, references to images etc. This way, all I need to do is the write two different stylesheets for the main structure and look of the both versions. The main difficulty I see happening is coding a structure in html that will work for both mobile nad desktop devices. Is this the best way to go about it? Or would you advise keeping the two sites separate? I have a website for my company, and at the bottom I have a clickable button which gives access to "resources" such as manuals and diagrams which is only accessible with a username and password. I would like to add a button that automatically opens the remote desktop connection tool (mstsc) on the users machine, and ideally ammend some of the default settings of this (drives, sounds etc). I have no idea if this is even possible! Any pointers (or a simple NO!) would be great! Here's what I'm up to: Made this scrolling desktop background on my Windows XP machine and found that the desktop icons, which appear transparent over a standard, static wallpaper, are no longer so when the desktop background is changed to an HTML one. That is, the text that displays as if typed with a drop-shadow over a static .jpg wallpaper image shows up over an HTML background inside a colored box. I'd like to get the "no box" effect, the standard XP text with a drop shadow, over the HTML background. Is this possible? Hey guys should I be worried about coding my site for the IE 5.x series or should I just concentrate on IE6 and IE7 does anyone know a browser that will only parse and evaluate valid HTML/XHTML based on what the doctype is and ignore invalid HTML/XHTML or generate errors. So if I had a XHTML doctype and my code was: Code: this is a XHTML document <br> this should be a new line I don't want the <br> to parse because I want something to trigger that is it not a valid XHTML tag since it is not closed. Any browser won't really care and just show the new line. I would have to validate it on the w3c website to find my error. So I want a browser that would give me these results based on my example code: Code: this is a XHTML documentthis should be a new line and then some sort of error saying "<br>" on line x is invalid. Hi, I work on a Mac, and have Safari, Internet Explorer 5 and Firefox. 1. What do you think I should be building my sites to? What do you use? 2. Also why do some sites work in all browsers? CSS hacks? Microsoft are no longer letting you download Internet Explorer for the Mac, from microsoft.com. Therefore all new mac users from February last year will not be using Explorer. Please help! Thankyou Tom Testing a new structure. I have tried IE6, IE7, Opera, Firefox and would appreciate crosschecks on other browsers for Linux/OSX http://www.telfordsteamrailway.co.uk...e/newindex.php basically all I have done is added the right column with the fundraising links I would like to now if there are any layout issues or issues with the .swf player Thanks in advance Hi all I'm new to html... I'he created one Html Page. Which comtains Frames. It is working fine in Firefox but in IE8 size is increased.. (Looking Like Zoom In) and Border of the Frame is not displaying in IE8. (You can see it in Images) so How to Make it look Similar on all Browser? Please help me to solve this.. Since all browser's are different, im trying to make a browser detection system for my website. the only problem is.. i can't.. I tried for several hours and have yet to make it work succesfully. Is there anyone who can make (or help make) a browser detection system for me? I would post my script but i deleted it. it would detect ie, but it mistook every other browser for google chrome. I have a small window that shows site logins by ip address. I open it with window.open and get exactly the proper display in the proper position. But, I'm stuck with the browser page that called window.open(). Is there a way to close that browser? I've tried things like window.opener.close() with no luck. Remember, I want t close the browser, not just a window. Thanks, Mac I was wondering if it was possible to set us a code so that when someone is looking at my site in say Internet Explorer is would direct them to a site that displays the page how I have it set up for IE for them and one say for firefox and say safari. Thank you in advance, I appreciate it! Hey, I've just put my website back online, but I've got a lil' problem. My website shows everything perfectly when using Internet Explorer, but when openend with Firefox and others, most of the site doesn't appear as it should, pictures missing etc, is there anything I can do about this?, If so pretty please tell me!
