    Exclamation I'm making a dictionary in VB.Net, and I want to create "apps" for Wikipedia, Wiktion

    Basically, what I've done is given the user four tabs to choose from. The main one is the dictionary which I've compiled, and the other three tabs link to online encyclopedias and dictionaries. However, what I want to do is make an app for each of these, because of the fact that the screen space I am giving the user is limited (499px x 254px), and I also believe that it will look more professional.

    What I'm thinking of doing is putting the logo towards the top, and then:

    • For Wikipedia, putting the title and picture at the top and breaking the article into show/hide sections like the mobile version
    • For Wiktionary, putting the title at the top, and breaking it down into show/hide sections when applicable
    • For Dictionary.com. putting the title at the top and showing the definitions (with linked pronunciations) underneath


    Of course, I'll need it to automatically redirect itself to the webpage I need it to go to, because I don't want to type another 300,000 lines of code just to go to a website.

    I think he wants to find ways to embed sites in his program, or at least allow users to search on those sites...
