Tell me what features you want, and I will create the program. this is a very simple program and won't take long to create....

COOL!

did you download that program? some features id like:

- i love the internal tabs feature! but its very buggy, and does not always (read as hardly ever) display the correct url in the address bar. Also when a page refreshes in the background, the address bar updates with the refreshed url, so if you happen to be typing a url in at the same time it gets seriously annoying.

- need a custom amount of refresh time as well as presets.

- must work under win2k, and if possibly NT4.

-should have a minimise to tray option

-should have keyboard shortcuts to refresh current page, switch between internal tabs etc.

- should include the current favourites.

- i do like the kill pesky popups feature, tho there should be an option to turn it off by default, or to override when opening a link in a new tab

-needs a save option in File.

thats about all i can think of atm. Let me know yeah!#

Thanks a lot

Anyone else who wants to give it a try, please do!!!

:D

Cheers lads

Here is a cool function what about as well as a refesh you could just say have a look at page if chnged then show it and change colour of tab(or other indicator) to indicate this change. Then you wouldnt have to visually look page to see any changes.

Also i notcied on Refersher original you have to right click to get up option of close active tab why cant you right click on a tab and the option is close this tab?

Lack of history function could be apain as well.

And you cant close the first tab. Why not why does it not just move the second one to the position of the first. ??

AAG

Tray Icon Implemented. Also, the first tab can be deleted, and you do not have to first left click to select a tab to delete it, when u right click on a tab, that tab item is selected and therefore selecting delete tab will delete the tab that was right clicked :) this is a feature that i thought of as I am using this program as my primary webbrowser as of now and add certain functions a fix bugz that I find as i use it :) I will try to implement the detect if the page has changed option but no gurantees :) as for the programs completion date, I have no idea as to when it will be done, I will more than likely setup a website for this program and will not be releasing the sourcecode for it. I know this is a major downer for some of you all... but hey this program wasn't as easy as I had first thought, and now there are some really great functions and turned out to be a damn good program that I actually use... I will help anyone who is trying to make a similar program and possibly send them sample sourcecode to what thier attempting to do.... :) well gotta go for now, i will post the website for the program soon. Post more suggestions and improvements for me to add and I will see what I can do :)

I am sorry but I do not mean to be cheeky by asking this question. Please donlt get angry with me for this.

I am a VB novice and am trying to learn as much as I can. Would it be possible by any chance for me to take a look at the code that has been written for this project.

Once again, I am sorry if this was a cheeky request.

Thank you.

As I have said before, I will try and help anyone who is attempting to create a project like this of thier own. I will not send the full sourcecode to my project as of yet. Maybe later on down the road as new projects are developed, i will release one of the older version's sourcecode. But as of now I am still not releasing the sourcecode. Sorry, but everything I have done in this program had to be figured out by myself and I had no other program's source to look at, I admit i'm not a vbbeginner or novice, but I am somewhere above novice.... it was still somewhat challenging as thier were some obstacles I had to get around. Again, if you ask me for help, I will help. :)

I was having trouble with the whole dynamic creation and deletion of webbrowsers controls and stuff

AAG,
How did you go about fixing this problem? I'm creating a program which has to create webbrowser controls dynamicaly as well and I can't figure it out.

AAG
Sep 14th, 2001, 08:45 AM
well its pretty simple...

to load a webbrowser control dynamically, first you must put 1 webbrowser control on your form at runtime and sets its index property to 0... then u may set its visible property to false

to load a new webbrowser control, u simple do the following


Dim WebCount as Long
WebCount = webbrowser1.count + 1
load webbrowser1(WebCount)
with webbrowser1(WebCount)
.visible = true
.top = 10
.left = 90
.width = 1000
.height = 1000
.zorder 0
end with


thats it, ofcourse i had to do some other things due to the fact that i'm using tabs, but the above way is a very simple way that works. :)

I realize you don't want to distribut the source code, but any chance of getting a copy of the compiled program?

It sounds great, plus it'd be a lot better than having 3 & 4 IE windows open...

Thanks!

AAG

sorry guys, i got a new job :) been too busy to finish the program... perhaps i will tidy up the code a bit and post the unfinished source in a day or so..

heres the sourcecode to the program.. i didn't comment so don't complain... if you don't understand something, post it here in the message boards and I will explain to u what it is and what it does... I may perhaps continue work on this project and release new sourcecodes as i see fit but as of now i'm just way too buys to continue at this momment...

Laterz,
AAG

Have fun with the source :)

I never said that to shut ... and ^_^ = smile so I just said than I posted code and it look like it calm down dude we can re-create the wheel. Yours have a better interface then mine, anyway we are all doing VB for fun so I do not think we should compete each other but help each other. AAG nice work.

i'm sorry for getting mad but it felt as if you were downing alll my hard work by saying i had copied your work... as far as answering what i have implemented so far, simply look at the code, i mean so far i've done all the toolbar functions except for History, Favorites and the automatice refresh although simply clicking the refresh button does refresh the current selected webpage. lets see what else, if u type in the address bar and hit enter it goes to a webpage, i have a right click menu the comes up when u click on a tab, when u right click it actually selects the tab the mouse is over so that u can delete that certain tab if u want to... i have also implemented an "Allow Popup Key" to activate popups, u simply hold down CTRL while clicking on a link that is a popup and it will popup, be careful with this though as continuing to hold down CTRL allows all popups not just ones that u click... None of the options have been implemented as well as none of the File Menu's such as open and exit, i never got around to this, its very simple stuff just never got around too it, after i finish my current project which will be very soon, perhaps another week, i will start working on this program again and improve it and release its sourcecode to all :) I know that makes alot of you all happy.... Well i think i've answered the question sorry about takin so long to reply.
