Javascript generating SMIL document

Stefano Bocconi

Hi all,

I am trying to use javascript to generate a SMIL document to give as
input to the browser (in another window or in the same). I tried this:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>My First JavaScript</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVAS CRIPT" TYPE="TEXT/JAVASCRIPT">

</SCRIPT>
</BODY>
</HTML>

but it does not work. I had a look at some FAQ but I could not find
anything. Now I am doubting that Javascript can only generate HTML
documents. Any clue?

Thanks,

Stefano

Yes, current browser pretty much only allow to document.write text/html
content.
If it is NN4 and you have a plugin set up for smil content then
myWin.document. open('put smil content type here');
myWin.document. write('<smil>.. .</smil>');
myWin.document. close()
should do.

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
