Alright, so i'm trying to implement an "idiot-proof" browser for xbmc. The problem is the minimize and maximize button. Well, maximize isnt as big of a deal its mostly minimize. The windows shell is xbmc, so i have no taskbar. Minimizing leads to many problems since the only way to get back is through alt-tab or task manager (not very advanced, but not all users will be computer literate).
I am open to different suggestions, one idea i would like to pursue is if advanced launcher could be configured to not open a new window, but to just switch over to the minimized one.
Other info -
win7 ultimate x64
xbmc 11.0 (eden)
browser - firefox (although i am willing to change)
had a thought, maybe create a batch file that closes all other firefox instances before opening another one. Anybody have a clue what command i would use for that? Im in the process of searching for that info and realize this may not be the right kind of forum for that info. Not an ideal solution, but it would work
