Attribute Settings in .NET framework

Creator QR in .NET framework Attribute Settings

Each attribute group comprises specific settings, also organized into a strict order Both the browser editor and the browser compiler expect these settings in the exact order, and any variation results in anything from a weird looking browser to a program crash The settings included in each section depend on which section you re looking at The types of settings you can expect to find, however, are listed here: Text Colors Filenames Component locations Component sizes True or False switches Web addresses Style specifiers The following sections tell you more about these different types of settings

Even if you were to load the Browser Construction Kit s editor and immediately save the default browser settings without adding or changing anything you d still get a script file The following listing shows this default file, which produces the browser window shown in Figure 20-2

[WINDOW ATTRIBUTES] Title = My Internet Explorer Color = Color [A=255, R=70, G=130, B=180] Icon = C:\Program Files\Wiley\Browser Construction Kit\Graphics\Earthico Style = 0 MaximizeButton = True MinimizeButton = True Border = Skin = [BROWSER ATTRIBUTES] Browser = False [TOOLBAR ATTRIBUTES] Toolbar = False [STATUS BAR ATTRIBUTES] StatusBar = False [Menu BAR ATTRIBUTES] MenuBar = False [FUNCTION ATTRIBUTES] LogFile = False

Alarm = False Lock = False ApprovedList = False ScreenSpy = False PopularSites = False [ADDRESS BAR ATTRIBUTES] AddressBar = False

Notice in the default script file how each component of the browser, except for the main window, is set to False That is, if you look at the BROWSER ATTRIBUTES section, you see this:

These lines mean that no browser pane has been added to the browser window For that reason, no other settings appear in the BROWSER ATTRIBUTES section If you were to add a browser pane, the BROWSER ATTRIBUTES section would look something like this:

[BROWSER ATTRIBUTES] Browser = True Left = 75 Top = 120 Width = 640 Height = 444 BrowserBorder = False BorderStyle = 0 StartSite = wwwwileycom

The same is true of the TOOLBAR ATTRIBUTES section Because the default browser has no toolbar, its section in the script file looks like this:

Look through the default script, and you ll see that all the components browser, toolbar, status bar, menu bar, functions, and address bar are set to False

Suppose that you create a complete browser, including most of the available components, settings, and functions Such a browser window might look like Figure 20-3

The script file for this browser holds a lot more information than the default script file did, because each browser component must include the settings needed to create the component in the custom browser s window Here s what the script file for the browser shown in Figure 20-3 looks like:
