Re: Do U Know What Is Hta??
One of my friend fro this site advice me to write good tutorials, so just for now Iam doing this.
=================================================================
SORRY U PEOPLE, I NEVER TRY TO HURT U, I WAS NOT AWARE ABOUT THAT THERE R SOME NEWONES WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WHEN U WANT
TO CLOSE ANY WINDOW LIKE THAT.
THIS TEXT IS FROM MICROSOFT WEBSITE.TO GIVE U JUST A LITTLE INFO. I PASTE IT HERE.
The power to build HTML Applications (HTAs) brings Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5 to the fore as a viable Microsoft Windows®
development platform. HTAs are full-fledged applications. These applications are trusted and display only the menus, icons,
toolbars, and title information that the Web developer creates. In short, HTAs pack all the power of Internet Explorer—its
object model, performance, rendering power, protocol support, and channel-download technology—without enforcing the strict
security model and user interface of the browser.
_______________________________________________
Why Use HTAs
Historically, programming languages like C++ and Microsoft Visual Basic® have provided the object models and access to system
resources that developers demand. With HTA it is now time to add Dynamic HTML (DHTML) with script to that list. HTAs not only
support everything a Web page does—namely HTML, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), scripting languages, and behaviors—but also
HTA-specific functionality. This added functionality provides control over user interface design and access to the client
system. Moreover, run as trusted applications, HTAs are not subject to the same security constraints as Web pages. As with
any executable file, the user is asked once, before the HTA is downloaded, whether to save or run the application; if saved
to the client machine, it simply runs on demand thereafter. The end result is that HTAs runs like any executable (.exe)
written in C++ or Visual Basic.
HTAs are suited to many uses, whether you are prototyping, making wizards, or building full-scale applications. Whatever
DHTML and script deliver now—forms, multimedia, Web applications, HTML editors, and browsers—so can HTAs...and then some.
Best of all, HTAs make some tasks easier. The simplicity of generating prototypes using HTAs makes it possible for program
managers and designers to script dialog boxes and alerts while the C++ or Visual Basic developers program the underlying
functionality.

Creating an HTA
Create an HTA by writing an HTML page and saving it with the .hta extension. It is that simple! but somethings needed to add.
___________________________________________________________
-Specific Functionality
Where the .hta extension tells the system how to handle the application, the new HTA:APPLICATION tag and attributes tell the
window how to behave as an application. This tag exposes a limited set of attributes—attributes that control everything from
border style to the program icon and its menu. The majority are read-only and have default values optimized for the average
application. To comprise a valid HTA, this tag must appear within the paired head tags.
The HTA:APPLICATION tag in this example specifies application features not available in DHTML. As prescribed by the
attributes, this application has neither border (border), nor title bar (caption), nor standard program icon (sysMenu). The
application title appears in the Windows task list but not in the taskbar (showInTaskBar), and only one instance of the
application is permitted to run at a time (singleInstance). When launched, the HTA is known to the system as "monster"
(applicationName) and initially is sized to fill the screen (windowState). For a full list of attributes and properties, and
links to more information about each, The program can be closed by pressing alt+f4.

SORRY AGAIN. DO NOT HATE I WILL PROVIDE MY BEST NEXT TIME.
BYE-BYE.
