@ao6lp sorry but i dont know I use dreamweaver as i have a registered version at work. maybe someone else can answer that thats how it should be .... Anyways, this all looks awesome. Between the code fixes, and the customization screens, I am loving this tool. Thats how i feel and is why i am putting so much time into it -

It is by ABC not the sort order as that is only for the hta page. -

only took me 5 minutes after i started TIP if you want to test this just edit the generate.js find this line if (true) { // set to false, if you want just the display but no real installs and change the true to false. It runs through without installing anything.. -

if you want installation by category just follow the instructions below open your generate.js in any editor and find this line function CreateFile(arg) { add this text directly above it function SortByCat(a, b) { var x = a.cat; var y = b.cat; return ((x < y) ? -1 : ((x > y) ? 1 : 0)); } then find this line programs.sort(SortByCat); and rem it out (this is if you want to change it back and add this line programs.sort(SortByCat);so it will look like this //programs.sort(SortByOrdr); programs.sort(SortByCat); If you want to change it back just take the two slashes off one line and add them to the other. Will sort out a variable in the config.js for this when i get a bit more time... singing Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat..... This is only to sort it by category and not more that one installation window. The sorting seems to be by category 'cat[pn]' then by program name 'prog[pn]' so if you want a certain order make sure these two are labeled for this -

No we are having one version. Mine is the same as hasi001 has. The 'new' look of mine is something else it has nothing to do with the programming of this great application. I will be puting up instructions on how and what to do to get some screens like the example i put in this thread a couple of days ago. I have found a few 'bugs' and have writen ways of getting rid of them. That is the whole idea of a board like this. We all want applications that work and this is being done. The more people look into projects like this the better they will get. @Astalavista that code above was generate.js. Most of the post with code actually say where they are from. If you have downloaded the latest version of WPI from hasi001's homepage then that is the one to use. all you need to do is add your programmes to the config.js file as hasi said. Anything else will come up with bugs that are confusing as the files are then from different versions. -

@hasi001 what exactly does these three lines of code do? I see no change. pth = new String(); pth = u[0]; u[0] = pth.toLowerCase(); -

you only need to delete the three lines the rest is already in there. I am now using 2.99a with the added changes. This does work ok. You only have to delete the three lines and it works ok. I will be doing a howto on modifying the look of WPI the week after christmas. not much time before...sorry -

BritishBulldog replied to bishooman's topic in Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI)
you can actually delete the three new lines pth = new String(); pth = u[0]; u[0] = pth.toLowerCase(); They are not needed as the case sensitivity was only with the variables being used not with the rest. That is sorted out with this rs = rs.replace("%cdrom%", cddrv); rs = rs.replace("%systemdrive%",sysdrv); rs = rs.replace("%windir%", windir); rs = rs.replace("%programfiles%",programfiles); rs = rs.replace("%CDROM%", cddrv); rs = rs.replace("%SYSTEMDRIVE%",sysdrv); rs = rs.replace("%WINDIR%", windir); rs = rs.replace("%PROGRAMFILES%",programfiles); -

@qwerty to stop WPI from installing twice you must edit the WPI.hta file find the text <!-- The continue button. --> about 11 lines below is this onClick="CreateFile(); self.close();"> change it to onClick="stopInterval();CreateFile(); self.close();"> one line below is this <font class="side" onClick="CreateFile(); self.close();"> change it to this <font class="side" onClick="stopInterval();CreateFile(); self.close();"> The problem was the timer is still running after clicking BeginInstall, why it only does this if everything is selected i am looking into. This applies to all versions so far a i can see... -

Hi hasi001 what i was talking about is the case sensitive variables used in WPI wether i write in my command line cmd1[pn]=['%CDROM%\\Install\\Driver\\USBFlash\\USBFlash.vbs'] or cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\Install\\Driver\\USBFlash\\USBFlash.vbs'] not what actually comes out -

BritishBulldog replied to bishooman's topic in Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI)
just made up a copy of 2.9.8a that is not case sensitive the only thing is either capitals or not for example %CDROM% or %cdrom% but not %CDrom% %systemdrive% or %SYSTEMDRIVE% but not %SystemDrive% %windir% or %WINDIR% but not %WinDIR% %programfiles% or %PROGRAMFILES% but not %PRogRamFiles% you can use in one line cdrom and another CDROM also with the other variables. the timer is set to 3 seconds on this so you can test and see what happens. The message is in after you click on BeginInstall but not after the timer runs out. See other posts on how to get rid of this at the BeginInstall. wpi2.8.9_non_case.rar -

said that two pages back plus Astalavista wanted two options for this 1. when BeginInstall is clicked 2. when timer runs out I am just looking at modifying the script so the variables are not case sensitive.. -

I can only remember what is up above, using this tool though would tell you what build of XP you had and what SP's where already integrated. It was very handy. -
