Microsoft Dynamic AX

[Seth Bourne]

I've seen the microsoft product (microsoft dynamic AX). it really impressed
me cause it looks like windows form, but it is web form (run on IE). it
hidden menubar, toolbar and everything on IE menu, and create the menubar
with own menu design. how to hide the menubar, toolbar and everything on IE
that without create a new window ? and how to design the look and feel IE
just like ordinary windows form ?

thanks

Seth,

With the current window you can't make the addres bar, tool bar, etc,
disappear. You can only do that to a new window that you are opening. That
new window can then close the old window... so you can sort of fake it.

To make a web application look like a rich client application is possible...
it just takes considerable design effort with the HTML. Getting it to work
on different browsers can be challenging, and the look/feel could change
(opera has "wierd" buttons).

All in all doable... but a lot of work.

Regards,

Rob MacFadyen

look/feel could change (opera has "wierd" buttons).

And neither Safari nor Camino uses styles (either inline or CSS) at all when
rendering buttons!

All in all doable... but a lot of work.

And a total waste of time and effort. What possible benefit could there be
in making a WebForm look like a WinForm?

i try to use HTML Application (HTA). it worked, it hide menubar, toolbar
adressbar. but it lose the power of asp.net, cause.. it is simply HTML which
is more complicated programming than ASP.NET as well. is it the right
solution for my problem ?

thanks

There is a lot of benefit could be found, such as GridView from Windows Form
is 'mouse less' than GridView from Web form.
how to make the GridView mouse less for Web Form ?
