I'm using frames for HomeAutomator too, it does make everything pretty
simple. You could use javascript to open another instance of the browser
that is say only 1 pixel square, but the problem with that is closing
it, the latest versions of IE have an extremely annoying habit of asking
for confirmation any time javascript tries to close a window.

The technique I am using is to have a visible frame (refreshing every
few seconds) that shows updating information and to have my links post
to that frame. This way the reaction to the hyperlink is seen
immediately as clicking on the hyperlink causes the page to update.

Subject: [ukha_xpl] Web xpl question


Hi all,

Currently my web based xpl stuff works by the hyperlinks loading a page
in a hidden frame (2 pixels wide, no borders etc) that then executes the
appropriate asp script for the xpl function to be run.

Obviously this limits implementation of my xpl web stuff to websites
that can be configured in the same way.

The question is, is there a better way of doing this?

I'm thinking along the lines of a hidden popup or something?

Any suggestions, please?

Many thanks
Tony
