1. LINKS-Browser as Frontend for Automation, was: Embedded Linux Web Browsers
Hello,
some weeks ago there was a discussion about Embedded Linux Web Browsers.
I told you, that I would take LINKS
(http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~clock/twibright/links/), but it had a
drawback, that Javascript could not be executed automatically.
There is a option in the latest release (2.1pre10) now, where they fixed
this (thanks to the programmers).
Now it is possible to use this browser as frontend:
As the meta-refresh tag is not recognized, a refresh must be done by adding
the following java script (I tested it with MS IE, Mozilla, Konqueror,
Links):
<html>
<head>
<script>
setTimeout("window.location.replace('URL')",2000)
</script>
URL is the new source, 2000 (ms) is for 2 seconds.
When the script is executed, the user is asked, if he wants to do so. This
can be changed in the settings.
A nice feature is, that one can adjust the number of retries. If the
automation server crashed and the program is restarted, LINKS therefore just
retries to get a web page without stopping the polls. You only have to
ensure, that every page contains the setTimeout().
The size of the browser seems to be 2 to 4 MBytes (depending on ./configure)
and up to 8 MBytes, if everything is linked statically.
Greetings
Ernst
