Webforumz Browser and misc apps!

alexgeek · Nov 26th, 2007, 17:45

It's not exactly brilliant but I made a WebForumz application.
It has a browser, notepad, rich text editor (ish), shortcuts to frequently used links and a PM viewer.

Download link is here ( http://78.32.29.193/download/download.php ).

If actually works, Suggestions?

That's pretty cool

alexgeek · Nov 26th, 2007, 20:09

I'm just glad it worked for you at the very least ha.
Any suggestions Marc?

Make the buttons at the top smaller, make the Webforumz Desktop title smaller and also if i load another web page - i get an error.

alexgeek · Nov 26th, 2007, 20:26

What error do you get? Is it the JavaScript one?

Marc · Nov 26th, 2007, 20:27

Yes... Line 626...

That is cool! No errors for me, Marc. Did it download correctly?
Alex, how did you make this?

Marc · Nov 27th, 2007, 06:38

I think if you go on to another website and there is a POP-UP it fails. It's fine if you stay on Webforumz. Next job for you alex is to get the new window thing working so that the pop-ups don't open in FF.

Still has a long way to go!

alexgeek · Nov 27th, 2007, 07:31

Yeah i have little control over the browser at the mo. Will enhance it!
Any ideas for little apps to go with it?

C# using MS Visual C# express

Stuart · Nov 27th, 2007, 11:43

Neat. I ave no clue about C#, I'm planning on learning it next summer...

alexgeek · Nov 27th, 2007, 15:41

It's pretty cool! The designer can do most of the work for you, it's like WYSIWYG.

alexgeek · Nov 29th, 2007, 23:11

New version! ( 78.32.29.193/download/wfdesktop.zip ).
What do you think? I spruced up the colours a bit.

The settings thing isn't working properly, it does not permanently save your homepage but I'll fix that soon!

Suggestions?

Stuart · Nov 29th, 2007, 23:27

Neat. Looks much better! Why do you have that opacity option? I bit unnecessary, isn't it?

alexgeek · Nov 29th, 2007, 23:31

I thought it was quite cool ha.
I'll set the default to opaque for the next version though, it's probably annoying to have to reset it each time.

Stuart · Nov 30th, 2007, 01:14

That's good since you are right, it is annoying to set it to opaque each time...

Or store user settings in the registry. Really easy in C# and a nice feature for any program.
