I can say that Rover is very definitely not designed to do whatever it is you're doing.Hawthorn Thistleberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00358395505794303985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29369484.post-70714710413054627302008-05-28T12:35:00.000-04:002008-05-28T12:35:00.000-04:00First off, thanks for Rover, it is great. I am us...First off, thanks for Rover, it is great. I am using Rover to pass html commands via an xml browser. I am trying to figure out what to code in the URL to get the XML browser to 'return' to where it came. The XML content is being fed via a different server all together.<BR/><BR/>I see how I can use the 'show=' portion of the rover html, but I don't want to show anything else from Rover, just go back to the original XML webpage once an option has been selected. I am not a html programmer (as you probably can tell). In other words once a url is passed to Rover have the XML client connect to something else?

It's easy to make a URL that goes into any particular page of Rover's, so such a page can be very simple. For instance:<BR/><BR/><html><head><title>Rover Front End</title><body><BR/><a href="rover.asp?show=Living_Room"><img src="livingroom.jpg"></a><BR/><a href="rover.asp?show=Kitchen"><img src="kitchen.jpg"></a><BR/><a href="rover.asp?show=Bedroom"><img src="bedroom.jpg"></a><BR/></body><BR/><BR/>You can then add a snippet to links.html to point to it, so you can get back to it from inside Rover any time you like.Hawthorn Thistleberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00358395505794303985noreply@blogger.com
