[edit] General

Website and HTML rendering support within the Oxygen Media Platform is realized by means of the Microsoft Internet Explorer. With HTML, CSS, JavaScript etc. websites provide extensive options to create dynamic content such as weather forecasts or similar applications. There is a broad user basis and a multitude of technical literature is available that will help you take the first steps.

Please note that HTML, CSS, JavaScript etc. have originally been created for websites. Thus there are some limitations for the use in the field of digital signage.

  • The Oxygen player hides possible horizontal and vertical scrollbars.
  • Unlike desktop browsers the default background color for websites is black. This setting can be overwritten by your flash movie, if desired.
  • The Oxygen player aims to display websites not before they are fully loaded. Potentially asynchronous JavaScript operations cannot be considered.
  • Pop-ups are suppressed
  • ActiveX Control installations are suppressed
  • Intensive use of ActionScript (full CPU load) may cause a player crash
  • User input (via keyboard or mouse) is suppressed
  • The player supports XBAP websites
  • Windows Media Player and Adobe Flash Browser Control are supported

Websites can be opened as links or can be imported as offline web containers.

[edit] Creating a WebContainer

Create a web/XBAP page named index.html, index.htm or index.xbap. Zip this file and possible other required data such as images, CSS files etc. and change the file extension from *.zip to *.Webcontainer. Now you can simply import this file.
