Hi, I have made a plugin allowing users to see the online help in a tab within Oxygen, and to open any web page they want, and read it within Oxygen. The plugin is at http://claudius108.users.sourceforge.ne ... /addon.xml <http://claudius108.users.sourceforge.net/repos/webview-plugin/addon.xml>. Enter http:/example.com in File / Open URL in WebView, or open the online help with Help / Help. Any feedback is welcome. Thanks, Claudius -- http://kuberam.ro
Hi Claudius, This is very cool! I can imagine using this in order to edit in one tab and preview the web view of this file in another. Two small comments: (1) If you could host the file at a host that supported HTTPS (e.g., GitHub), this could help users feel better about installing remote code on their systems. We trust you, and anyone can review the source, but a man in the middle could alter the code along the way. This goes for other plugins too, e.g., the TEI framework plugin. (2) The tab for the web view appears to be the URL that it's displaying, but hitting File > Save As results in an empty file, Untitled1.text, being saved. I see the same result when right-clicking on the tab and selecting Copy Location. I'm not sure there's a perfect solution here, but it would seem natural that Copy Location would result in the URL being copied to the clipboard, and perhaps Save As could save either the HTML file (as a web browser typically does), or more simply, a plain text file containing the URL itself. Both these are minor points. This is useful and a nice demonstration of how extensible oXygen is. Thanks for sharing it!

Hi, Joe, Thanks for the suggestions, as usually you have very nice ones. I will apply them and report back here. Claudius On Wed, Feb 17, 2016 at 3:14 PM, Joe Wicentowski <joewiz@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, The new location for the plugin is https://raw.githubusercontent.com/claudius108/oxygen-addons/master/oxygen-we.... Oxygen is kind enough to update the plugin, even if github servers this file as text/plain. So, you want to save the current page as one can do this in Firefox, by clicking on Save Page As...?

Hi, Each tab that is opened with this plugin has now 4 new buttons: Back, Forward, Save Page As, and Refresh. Claudius On Thu, Feb 18, 2016 at 10:53 AM, Claudius Teodorescu < claudius.teodorescu@gmail.com> wrote:
