Is it possible to lay objects over the Browser?

Hi,

I noticed that the Browser is always laying over all objects. I tried to lower down the layer of the browser. However the situation is still the same.

Is it possible to lay an object (e.g. image, button) over the Browser?

Thanks and best regards

Hi Alex,

I don't believe this is possible. Why do you want that?

Best,

Mark

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your information. I want that because I wish to do some trick (or inter-action) with the website in the browser.

Best regards

Dear Alex,

Can't you do the trick with JavaScript? Why do you want the object to be on top of the browser? Anyway, it seems impossible, but if you tell us what you want to do exactly, maybe we'll find a different solution.

Best,

Mark

Hi Mark,

Actually I wish to get a picture graph from a website. As I asked in other post that the graph sometimes (70% fail) cannot be loaded successfully in the image object. However the graph is always load (100%) successfully in the browser.

Therefore I try to find an alternative solution - load the webpage in the RR browser, and masking the "unwanted web contents".

Best regards

Hi Alex,

Can't you just show the picture in the browser? If you know which picture you want to show, you can navigate the browser to the url of the picture. This way, you don't need to hide anything.

Hi Mark,

I tried before. However this is very strange.

1. When I use browser to access the website, e.g.
http://website.com/chart_page.asp?ID=694

The chart (e.g. 694.png) is always showing in the webpage.

2. However when I use browser to access the chart using the chart absolute url, e.g.
http://website.com/data/history/694.png

The chart is usually fail (70% fail).

It seems that it is a "dynamic graph" that generate based on the requested ID, day and time. The graph is not upload by human, it is generate by software. Therefore the graph cannot be accessed by the graph's url.

Thanks and best regards
