edfed - If you would want to - or dex.. create an icon for the fbrowser..
I would like to be able to open and close it! and restart it wirh the icon..

I am not so worried about speed right now.. we don't have much yet just a shell!!!!
It needs to work and then fine tooned!!!

I was thinking of putting a spash screed - Loading FBrowser ect..

This should not take long to add.. plus - A new look and new ideas on how to get it finished..

The day it logs onto the net and diplays this forum will be a great day!
it will happen!!!!

Though it will be restricted by having the right drivers..

Dex.. I have been looking at the code and have a lot of good ideas..
Thanks!!

also: for the splash screen - if you or dex would like to create one or a desk top background.. I will add it..

In the up commig weeks will repost the updated version..

Thanks to all!!!

Cool,what image format are you using (eg: bmp, gif, jpeg etc).

desk top :800*600 256.. bmp - to save on space!
splash - can be any size.. or use the 800*600

you can use a hire res.. and I will convert it.. you can use jpeg gif ect..

i think about resolution.

1024*768 is mine
800*600 is yours.
then, instead of coordinates, it would be fine to have portions of screen

10% in 1024 = 102pxl
in 800 = 80pxl.

and then, when we'll have a good image scaler, it will be easy to put any image in what dimensions we want.

but it is only graphic effects.

the problem for me is to control the memory content.
create new items. destroy and free memory.
then, a memory map is needed i think.
what granularity?
Kilobyte?
Megabytes?

I am working on taking Dexs window design and combining the code into one function for windows in fbrowser... either with an int or call fwin function.. and combine the window txt,buttuns,edit box ect.. To create one objet that works together by the coords and dim of the window..

and create graphic functions for the window.. lines,text, boxes, scrol,buttons, ect.. Right now every thing is seperate object.. have to re-enter all locations of every object every time the win is moved or re-sized...

It make it easier to open and close/create a new win -

and I am adding the txt funcion to the edit box on the browser - so we can enter a webpage address

pretty simple should be done soon..

and making some head way in the parser.. keeping it simple!!

Dex - looking forward to the designs you come up with!!! for the background or icon..

have you got code to work on?

I will post them soon , also i am working on a image scaling function, so you can scale the image to fit screen size.

i am working on too.

???


Nice..

the prob with most images is the size using a floppy ... one of these days I will update to a flash drive or something better... more space equ higher res images!

the two lines will be conserved as tables.



about images, i think it is better to create them using iteration of forms and efftects. start of a visualistion lib?

okay - got it.. was not sure what you were refering to..

How is it going for you?

Are you still thinking of maping the mem?

I am working on a graphic lib, that has jpeg, gif, bmp, scaling, plus GUI functions.
Also i have written a xp program to put floppy or hdd images to usb fob, its 90% finished, you can use that .

I would like try it when its finished. Thanks..





Sounds like you have been busy..
Cant wait to see what you come up with!!!

Here is a bigger screen shot of the FBrowser..

Displays an error msg when page not found..
adding more to the window code and mouse support to move window,ect..

added back ground image..

Function for the edit box will be added next.. and the parser is getting there..


Just giving an update!

Cool, does the move window use a frame ( eg: a sq box) or does it move the whole window ?.
Also any chance of a floppy image to try it out .

The way I am setting it up right now is when you click on the top of the window and hold in the mouse button.. it will draw a outline and then redraw when released.. will post code at the beginning of next week

easy to code.

what about the parser?
that is the main pb in this project/contest.


do you use my method for tag resolution or an other?
just to know if my work have any kind of utility...

I am not looking at it as a contest.. I am here trying to make a web browser with win funtions that people like to use with it.. move the window.. resize .. ect...
right now it still boots in a couple seconds.. what will slow it down it the connection to the net...

also going to add some simple multitasking to it.. this weekend.. I will have to see were it goes..

The parser is being worked on... will post this version when its done..


I do not have the latest example of your work.. edfed.. I just used the origional version that Dex made..

I want it to be able to open any web page programmed in html.. and display it..

The parser is going to take the longest.. There are a lot of parts to it .. most important - graphics..

I have a bit of time spare so i will add some work to this project, but as i see it, the parser will need to be worked on bit by bit, as in when everything eles is done, we write a parser that displays a simple hello world html page, than add more and more untill it can display anypage, thats the only way to make this sort of project, as if not you will spend too much time debuging.
This meford has always worked for me.

I agree - there are a lot of elements to the parser .. and will be a work in progress..

I am just trying to make it user freindly also..


Dex - hopefully will send you the bootable exapmle for testing in about 5 days
