I want to be able to click a button and then use A4URL.EXE to open up a browser window and have the browser window be visible.

(Currently the browser is underneith the A5 application)

Does anyone know how I can have people see whats in the browser without closing my A5 application?

The only way that I can think of is to tile both A5 and your browser with each sized to fit on the screen at the same time.

Seems the function you speak of calls the default browser? If so, putting "window.focus()" inside a Jscript function called by the "onload" event, for instance, would seem do the job?

Hope this helps.

Ron: My application is full screen, so I'm afraid your idea will not work.

S.C.: Your idea sounds like it would work, but I am completely clueless as to web/Java/HTML stuff.

Could you elaborate please?

Thanks!

Sorry for the delay...
code:

<!-- (This will hide the following script from ancient browsers...)
<script language="JavaScript">
// TODO find the interface-a way, to call this function on other than the "onLoad" event.
function inFront()
{
window.focus();
}
(End hiding...)// -->
<BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"
/*onLoad*/="inFront()">

The above /* and */ on either side of the "onLoad" are there for formatting inside the UBB "CODE" tag and are to be removed.

cyah.

S.C.

Thanks SnowCrash,

That looks easy enough... but where do I add that code?

I've never done any web development before.

Viewing the source of the HTML page you want to be seen, look-search for a <SCRIPT> "tag," if none is found copy and paste everything above the <BODY> tag in my post above the body tag on your target page. Else if one is found, just paste the function, only, in between said opening and closing <SCRIPT> tags. *IF* the script tag has a path statement ... simply follow my earlier statement you wont hurt anything (If you copy and paste everything outside, the opening and closing braces of the pathed <SCRIPT> tag that is...), by doing so.

Next look for the <BODY ... ...> tag, see if there is an "Onload" statement there. If not, simply add the one from my post. If there is, what you have to do is write a function that calls both the existing and the newly added function, like so;

code:

function hybridFunct(any existant params here)
{
oldfunction(potential params);
newfocusfunction();
}

function newfocusfunction()
{
window.focus();
}


I think that's everything... *-)

Success

S.C.

Thanks Snowcrash.

That was an education. Much obliged.
