Thread: Touchscreen web browser

It can only load certain types of pages at the moment, the next version will fix that. I'll look into the images as well as add an enter button on the OSK .

I'll look into scrollbars, I guess it makes sense to have them still, just larger.


I thought the http:// thing was there, turns out I commented out that part and forgot to put it back in. My bad.

I would question if you really need scroll bars....you can still click and drag the page (like on an iphone) which I think is far more effective the trying to use a scroll bar.... Thoughts?

How about... an enable/disable option for them?


My phones browser has scroll bars, which are useful for quickly scrolling to the bottom of long pages in one motion, rather than having to repeatedly drag scroll down

Oh, didn't realise you could do that.

Just tried it, not bad, not bad at all.

Yep, I guess you can dispense with the scroll bars.



Actually no, make it a switchable option


Fix those Picture things, make it skinnable and you could be onto a winner.

New version uploaded. Details and download in the first post. Let me know if anyone has issues with the images loading. I still haven't gotten skinning up and running yet, still debating exactly how I want to do it.

Top 3 for ya:
1. Images are still a no go....

2. Enter button on the onscreenkeyboard should act like an enter button press (aka navigate to the page if in the address bar, submit a search if in the google search textbox, etc).

3. OSK Doesn't disappear (for example if you do a google search and click go you cant get rid of the osk)

Alright, I know the answer to number 1, I need to include the image rendering dll's My bad.

Number 2: I'm fixing as we speak

Number 3: Gotcha, it disappears if you click out of the textbox, but apparently not if you click a button or hit enter. I'll fix that as soon as number 2 is done.

The new version 0.3 fixes 2 and 3. It may or may not fix number 1, depending on how right I was.

Fixed, Fixed and Fixed - Now for the trivial list:
1. Need a backspace button in the OSK
2. Space button in the OSK is cutoff
3. Pressing enter in the osk when typing an address should trigger a navigate action - right now you have to press the go button.

Looks good though
