I managed school websites which around 100 domains.
My boss asking me what is an easy way for him to get and see front page for all the website on the different domain.
Is there any web browser plugin can solve this?
This will be easy if I can give him domain.txt and plugin will do the rest.
Thanks in advance.
You should solve this server-sided:
Create a scripted page, that uses iframes to show a tiled view of the target pages
Make this script configurable via a domains.txt, a database or whatever works best for you
Point your boss to tis page

I want to display websites in different iframes. This website is the web interface of a monitoring tool (Icinga). No problems so far.
If I press a button/link in one iframe (that contains e.g. the topology of the system monitored), the link to a deeper level (still Icinga web interface) shall open in another iframe.
If this is not possible, is there any other way to open links from a website in another window?
Thanks in advance for your help !

I am just learning html and have not found any solution on my research yet. Also, I have no clue of javascript so far. Using the target command just works for predefined links.
I am developing an universal windows app. I need to download a webpage and extract images from it.
I got the html code and extracted the links to images and downloaded them. The thing is, the site has infinite scrolling (like facebook). When I scroll down to the bottom it loads more images. I am not able to incorporate this into my app. I am a beginner and have very little knowledge of web development or windows app development. This is my first app. I am stuck and have no idea how to proceed. I don't want to use webview as it displays ads from the site and other unnecessary contents. I only want the links to those images. Please help me go past this situation. I need a way to download the new html content that the site loads when user gets to the bottom or some other way to get the image links.
Thanks in advance.
You may or may not be a me to implement this specifically because of the reason you stated. You need to determine how the site loads this information. First I would download Fiddler and in turn enable https connect logging so you can see your encrypted traffic going through Fiddler. Btw the Web View has events you can hook to see loading URLs, etc and it can also be hidden.
So again you need to first understand how the site you want to do this on works and emulate that, assuming they don't have an api already to give you this information as mentioned I'm the comments.
When you do that, come back with code examples and you'll get better help.
I've made a website which displays images hosted on other sites using the html src="http://......" tag, however sometimes some of the images won't load. This appears somewhat random, and I don't think it is a problem with the links themselves.
I display a lot of images, so I am wondering if this is a common problem when trying to load many thumbnails from another site. Is the best solution to host all the thumbnails on my own server, and if so, is there an efficient way to do this (so I don't have to manually download and link to every image)?
Thanks
Is way better to host it on your own server.
Because if are all from other servers, you must connect to all servers and download it.
It causes worse response and increase the time required to load the page.
To the image and links downloading - I think it is possible, just go on google and try to find some advanced html page downloader. I had one and it worked directly the way you want. - can't remember the name..
(also sorry for my bad English)
Let's assume there's a site - http://domain.com
Now my job is to upload a CMS (Joomla, version 1.7). However, there's a big mess on FTP - already a Joomla (version 1.5), forum software, many unknown PHP files, many custom folders.
I can't simply upload Joomla 1.7, because I would have to delete that Joomla 1.5 file by file. So I've decided to upload CMS to subdomain, http://domain.com/subdomain, and display that content from http://domain.com. I don't want to simply redirect, because original URL must be kept.
How to do it? iframes are pretty outdated.
Iframes ? Stay away, use rewrite rules and keep the domain clean
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html
iFrames are still heavily used today and would be a fine solution for you. However there would be some problems with using an iframe that you should consider. My two cents fix the problem correctly by install Joomla properly, then try the using re-write rules all else fails you can use iframes.
Bad Points for iframe solution:
Using an iframe pointing to your site would probably be really bad for SEO. I don't think google or bing would look into the iframe thus you'd get 0 SEO value out of this solution.
URL link's would be ruined, if a user wanted to bookmark, tweet the url,
or even just send it to a friend they would have no way of doing that
because the url would be changing in the iframe not in the browser
bar.
No so bad points for iframes:
Sounds like this is an easy workaround for your problem so its not very time consuming.
iFrames are used all over the place on the internet and are fully supported by all major browsers.
I am working on a prototype for a project that is somewhat similar to the facebook's "like" button. Basically it's an embeddable piece of code that can integrated with any website.
I am looking for a way to fake this integration for a demo. Basically I want to show a familiar web page (like http://www.cnn.com) with my code already embedded. Since I obviously can't do the actual integration right now, I need some way of faking it.
The only thing I can think about is to use http://www.httrack.com/ to download the page I want, and then change it locally. The problem with this is that it is clear that the page is hosted locally and not on www.cnn.com.
Is there a better technique for doing this?
If you use Firefox browser, you can use Greasemoneky and with JavaScripts, embedd your content inside that page. You can eaven add events, that will open some popup windows, etc. to show action of such a script.
That is easy approach, there are ton's of examples in their forum, and good documentation, how to use it.
You can write your own userscript (i.e. greasemonkey) to modify the page on the fly.
Even though I think it's a bad idea to do this (not sure if stackoverflow allows to ask such questions), but what you can do is edit the hosts file (if you're on windows) and add a line
127.0.0.1 www.cnn.com
it means that when you visit the website cnn it will display the domain name in the browser but it will use your localhost server to display the content.
