This is a patch which works in conjuction with a web page, to make it possible to load new URLs without having to quit and reload OWB each time. The patch changes the default URL loaded by OWB when started from its icon or without shell argument. Instead of Google it loads my page by default which is a frameset with a static URL toolbar on top and bookmarks of a few common websites. As I couldn't make OWB go to my page directly when launched from its icon, the easy solution was to alter the binary to replace the Google URL with my own. The patch makes the same changes I had made here with my Hex editor. It only alters the default page loaded when no URL was provided on the command line, so you still can go directly to any page you want. It's only a temporary solution while we wait for a toolbar in OWB, and as time permits I'll try to add some useful features to that pseudo-toolbar, such as user-defined bookmarks, history, or whatever I can cook using JavaScript, Cookies and Layers, as I can update the top frame at will without requiring OWB to be patched again. BTW, if you want to see what that forwarding URL is all about without patching OWB first, just go to hostwork.com/owb/ Even if you don't patch OWB, feel free to use that page if you find it useful. |
