Hi Chris,
I didn't see the post to Ptolemy-hackers and for some reason I can't get the
png file to open - it got corrupted when it was sent.
However just wanted to note with regard to this comment of yours:
>I think this window should continue to have a close box in the upper
>corner. My reasoning is that the welcome window has a check box and
>a close button, thus it is a window with which the user may interact.
>Thus, it should have some of the standard features.
I'm in complete agreement and that is how the design is spec'd.

Hi Nandita,
I'm afraid I'm a bit lost.
I saw your first post to ptolemy-hackers that included a png
screenshot and intro.html. It bounced because it was over 40k in
size.
I'm not so sure that the HTMLViewerTableau will handle JavaScript.
I'm not sure what your question is here? I'm not so sure if
JavaScript is the right solution.
I think the right solution is to modify
ptolemy/actor/gui/WelcomeWindow.java
so that it has a "Show this dialog upon startup" check box at
the bottom and a close button. The inner part will remain the
HTMLViewerTableau.
The checkbox will interact with the preferences.
I think this window should continue to have a close box in the upper
corner. My reasoning is that the welcome window has a check box and
a close button, thus it is a window with which the user may interact.
Thus, it should have some of the standard features.
We could try to get rid of the close button by modifying
ptolemy.gui.Top, but it might take a little work.

Also intro.htm requires javascript to close etc...

I have developed an "intro.htm" as per Laura's design layout and it
looks o
k in a normal web browser. When displayed in the HTML ViewerTableau after
ke
pler has started, the display settings of the welcome screen seem to
chan
ge w.r.t color of tables and extra characters for some reason.
i am attaching both original intro.html file as well as the display with
Ta
bleau.
I will in the meantime look more into Tableau Viewer to try to figure
out t
he reason for the display changes.
thanks,
nandita.
