17 <h2>SliTaz Web Browser</h2>
19 <p>
20 TazWeb is radically simple and very light web browser providing a
21 single window with a small toolbar, but without any menubar or tabs.
22 Navigation is done with a right click anywhere in the browser window
23 or from the toolbar. Also a fullscreen mode, bookmarks, home page
24 and this documentation file are accessible from the right-hand side
25 of the toolbar.
26 </p>
27 <p>
28 SliTaz Web Browser was created for the needs of TazPanel which is
29 the SliTaz administration and packages manager panel and made with
30 the latest technologies such as xHTML 5 and CSS 3 for the graphical
31 user interface. The content is powered by CGI scripts and the prefered
32 web server is Busybox httpd.
33 </p>
34 <p>
35 The browser is small, very small, the binary is about 12 Kb and
36 uses the Webkit engine for page rendering and therefore, supports
37 all latest web standards as well as Javascript.

40 <h3>My TazWeb Page</h3>
41 <p>
42 TazWeb handle a personnal page located in your Freedesktop standard
43 configuration directory, the path is: $HOME/.config/tazweb/page.html
44 It let you have a custom page with bookmarks and other content. The
45 CSS style is defined in $HOME/.config/tazweb/style.css
46 </p>
47 <p>
48 The file is a simple xHTML 5 document with, by default, a list of
49 links and a box. You can edit this file with you favorite editor
50 and add content such as bookmarks entries or change the look and
51 feel as you want. At first start TazWeb will create and copy your
52 personnal page and style in your config directory.
53 </p>
54 <p>
55 Note: You will find the default page.html in: /usr/share/tazweb and
56 can get an original copy with the following commands in a terminal:
57 </p>
58 <pre>
59 $ mkdir -p $HOME/.config/tazweb
60 $ cp /usr/share/tazweb/*.html $HOME/.config/tazweb
61 $ cp /usr/share/tazweb/*.css $HOME/.config/tazweb
62 </pre>
64 <h3>Home page and url in argument</h3>
66 <p>
67 The default start page has been defined in the source code and can't be
68 changed and is the default SliTaz WebHome, but TazWeb accepts an
69 URL as a first argument, example: http://www.slitaz.org/. In this way
70 you can for example create your own and custom home page in a pretty
71 xHTML document and start tazweb with a standard desktop file or from
72 the command line: tazweb file://$HOME/.config/tazweb/home.html
73 </p>
74 <p>
75 If you want a custom home page for your Live system or all system users,
76 you can create your own slitaz-configs package or edit the xHTML file
77 located in /usr/share/webhome/index.html. If you modify it, make sure
78 to block slitaz-configs or make a backup because it will be overwritten
79 with a slitaz-configs package update.
80 </p>
82 <h3>Web applications</h3>
83 <p>
84 TazWeb browser is perfect to launch web applications via a simple
85 desktop file. Once created with a simple text editor, the desktop
86 file can stand on the desktop with a nice icon or in the standard
87 SliTaz menu. Example of a web application launcher that you could
88 name scn.desktop:
89 </p>
90 <pre>
91 [Desktop Entry]
92 Type=Application
93 Name=SliTaz SCN
94 Icon=slitaz-menu
95 Exec=tazweb http://scn.slitaz.org/
96 </pre>
