[02/03] flashing taskbar in browser app

is there a way to make the taskbar flash when in a browser app???

Im trying to create a helpdesk type browser app. so refresh of the page it will look to see if there are any outstanding enquiries. If there are, i wondered if the taskbar could flash to warn the users?????



any thoughts


thanks??

You can flash the titlebar/captionbar of a window or the window rectangle in the taskbar using the FlashWindow API.

can you still use this when developing a web browser app, because i cant work out how to import the api in this type of project??

You can place the API definition in a module or class even and make it public so its accessible throughout your project. Then call it from any form.
