I am uploading a test for default home page replacement for 4.2 ... maybe a link is better though so we get updates???

not sure where I would put zero install unless there is a pet package for it - then it would go in install - until then I will continue compiling my own programs with puppy and devx

I have been playing with vala and genie a bit & decided to try Barry's little html viewer for the web desktop. The pet is attached.

Just a tought, maybe you could add http://www.mibbit.com/ under Communicate -> Chat, it's a nice web based irc client

Next footfall is to add sites from all of these lists of web apps while aggravating to break beneath 10 per class - may charge to breach some categories or add some new ones so we don't get any added "tails" (I assumption I've got it searching so abundant like a desktop humans overlook they accept annal bars)

Techno

I've just come across this and thought of your Web Desktop....

Hope you find it interesting as I think this could benefit Puppy/users in particular, and linux/users in general

Perhaps a team might come together for this?

I'll offer research/searching for any needs/plugging/... etc

I'm going to open a new thread for this

Very nice!

I seem to have a problem-- I didn't see it reported in a quick skim of this thread.

Using Seamonkey 1.1 14 on Puppy 4.1.2 std kernel, the mouse-overs obscure the choices..

That is a function of the individual browser & I don't know a way of modifying that behavior other than turning it off (you can probably do it in the browser too). CSS maybe? If you have a suggestion I'd be willing to try it.

No, sorry Technosaurus, I don;t know how. But it's pretty minor for me, I just thought I'd mention it if you didn't know about it. I may be changing browsers soon anyway.

But a fine new presentation and idea. That's the main thing!

EDIT: Actually there is a potential simple workaround. You might shorten the descriptions. I noticed the short ones didn't interfere with the far menu when I was trying to do a screenshot. That's the one you really want to read.

Looks like 21 characters in the mouse-over would allow reading the menu in the above screenshot. "Collaborative Apps", or "Collaboration" maybe?

Opera 10.00, one done for Puppy, is incompatible with the drop downs menus They close down before the pointer can be moved to click on one. No problem on the same Thinkpad with the Puppy HTML viewer or with Seamonkey.

Thanks
