boen_robot Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 You can have a single page in the desktop by right clicking on the desktop and select "Properties". From there, select the page "Desktop". Click "Customize Desktop". Select the "Web" page. Click "New..." and in the new window, add the location of the page you want.This however doesn't place an adress bar on that page. Or is that actually what you need? An HTML page with an adress bar, that you can then place on the desktop using the above method? If so, here's a sample "page browser" I just wrote for you : <html><head><script type="text/javascript">function changeSource(){var adress = document.getElementById("adress").value;document.getElementById("frame").src= adress;}</script><style type="text/css">* {margin: 0; padding: 0;}iframe {width:100%; height: 100%;}.history {width: 3%;}#adress {width: 84%;}#submit {width: 8%;}</style></head><body><form action="java script:changeSource()"><input class="history" type="button" value="<" onclick="java script:history.back()"/><input class="history" type="button" value=">" onclick="java script:history.forward()"/><input id="adress" type="text" value="http://"/><input id="submit" type="submit" value="GO!"/></form><iframe src="about:blank" id="frame"></iframe></body></html> If you just change "about:blank" to whatever home page you want, save that as HTML file locally and call it as an active desktop, you'll have something like a browser.P.S. I'm just starting with Java Script, so don't expect me to be able to add additional features to this .Note: you'll also have to remove the space between "java" and "script". This board leaves out a space as a security measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
