    Re: A Web Desktop...

    I made a web desktop once. A couple things i had on it tho is that you can log into it, and instead of windows popping up i used this script that made the windows go into the webpage. I also had a right click menu and was in the proccess of making a toolbar like the windows one but i abandonded the project because it took too long. But i like yours. If i find my old one ill give you the scripts.

    OK:
    • I fixed the sign-up page. It should work now.
    • The type-o has been corrected :P
    • And I've made a Theme Manager plug-in. If you know a bit of CSS, then you can design your desktop pretty well. More CSS selectors will be added to the site to give people more options later.

    Tell me if there are any more bugs (and suggestions are welcome!).

    On your desktop help window it should be:

    You should add a page with a desktop-like interface. Where you can move icons, etc... around and add new ones.

    Speaking of the windows, how would I go about making window that come up in the webpage that act like real windows and can be moved, closed (actually destroyed and not just hidden), and resized (and maybe even minimized or rolled-up)?

    I had some windows like that on the first rendition of my desktop but they weren't very good.

    Nevermind, I figured it out. I've gotten windows to do almost everything I want them to do except for resizea and minimize (but it does roll-up).
    I haven't rewritten the code on the desktop, yet, so the pop-up windows will remain for now until I finish.

    Lol, I must ask... Where did you get the idea for a site like this, it's not everyday you see an online desktop.

    New Updates:

    • No more pop-up windows! The new windows can still be minimized, resized, etc. like normal ones.
    • A task bar has been created. It has some user actions like shutdown, logoff, and restart, a Focus Window menu so that you can switch between many windows, and a clock. TO BE ADDED: Tray icons.
    • You can "shutdown" and "restart" now.
    • There's a spash screen. It checks to make sure that everything you need to use the desktop is enabled. If not, it gives you a...
    • Blue Screen of Death, where major errors are displayed.
    • BugBuster. Will soon be able to let you report bugs (only displays them in the status now).
    • Different chat (it's hosted by someone else). The old one will be re-written and integrated with the desktop.
    • Some more bugs fixed.
    • Better-looking interface.
    Soon to come:
    • Customisable sounds for actions like start-up, window open/close, etc.
    • More chat apps.
    • New Mini-browser app with built-in proxy.
    • Media Player.
    • TypeText 1.0 so that you can edit and save documents.
    • A forum.
