IThit Ajax browser 2.0 - ajax

It states on the ItHit site that applet is optional for Ajax browser, is this true? can we use the Ajax browser without using the applet, will I just be able to browse the server files immaterial of MS or non-MS doc types? Can a client use a local windows explorer and just drag and drop files into the ajax browser window?

The applet is optionnal, it serve to browse your webdav directory with your current Operation system and also edit a file using available software.
You can customize your menu to hide those two options.

How to programmatically open a website and click buttons

How to use VBScript to implement the following:
Open web browser
Load a URL in web browser after opening
List item
Click buttons in the loaded browser
Is this possible using VBScript. Any examples of code to help get me started would be beneficial. Also, my web browser is Chrome.
There is a Selenium webdriver created that works with VB.NET, VBA, and VBScript. Download and install the exe.
There are also lots of example scripts that show loading different browser types or in your case Chrome. Once loaded you just need to program what elements to navigate and click after loading your specific URL.
There might be other ways to launch and run commands against the web browser using VBScript. This is just one way.
SeleniumBasic v2.0.9.0 created by Florent Breheret and open source via git hub.
A Selenium based browser automation framework for VB.Net, Visual Basic Applications and VBScript
Script Example:
Set driver = CreateObject("Selenium.ChromeDriver")
driver.Start
WScript.Echo "Click OK to quit"
driver.Quit
Here is the official SELENIUM page: selenium main page
UPDATE:
Here is a second option that is based on the same concept , but implemented a little different. I am not sure it meets your needs , but thought I would include it as another example.
VBS WebDriver
Examples using the VBS WebDriver which is intended to provide a simple binding for Selenium 2. The bindings include the full functionality of Selenium 2 (WebDriver).
If you press F12 in Internet Explorer you can lie about what browser you are using. Use the compatibility tab (a downward direction play icon) and enter your UA string for a browser they support.

app inventor webviewer can't upload files from a html form

I have made a html/php form that allows me to upload files. And when I open it in my pc browser works perfectly. It also works when I open this website wiht my mobile's browser and when I click on select file I can chose which app I want to use to get the file I want to upload.
But when I open this website with webviewer from my app, When I click the button to upload the sound, nothing happens. The whole line is selected and clicking the button does nothing.
Thanks for your help.
The webviewer is no full browser, this does not work therefore.
But you can use the activity starter instead, see the documentation about Using the Activity Starter
Open the browser to a Web page
Use these activity starter properties
to open a specific web page:
Action: android.intent.action.VIEW
DataUri: http://news.google.com
Alternatively use the web component together with the PostFile block, see an example here

Use selenium IDE to change Firefox Preferences for SDK Addon testing

I am using Selenium IDE to test some behavior in my FireFox SDK Add-On. For example, I load a page and determine that the content script is executing at intended. In my plugin, I use simple-prefs to set some user defined preferences.
For example, I would like to load a page and then ensure that if a preference is changed, that the content script received the update and made the necessary changes to the page based on the new setting.
when I try to navigate with Selenium-IDE to the plugin configuration page chrome://mozapps/content/extensions/extensions.xul?type=extensions / about:addons. I am able to use Selenium to select an entry (<richlistitem />), but I cannot click any of the buttons within the entry because they are not part of the XUL dom. I have tried using Selenium to send enter, tab, clicks, double clicks to the appropriate <richlistitem /> but there is no way of interacting with the "inner part" of the item.
I have also tried going down the path of using selenium to modify entries via about:config, however, the area with all of the entires is just an XUL <treechildren /> and you have no way of targeting individual entries.
Is there a convenient way to change addon setting as part of an automated workflow with selenium-ide?
It seems you should use Selenium Web driver , by driver you can set preference

Force System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser open in standard mode

I'm developing a client windows form application. the application must browse URLs provided by servers in a System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser control.
The problem is when Navigating Document Mode is set to Quirks and a "Http Status 403" is shown instead of the requested Page.
How to force webBrowser to open in standard mode without changing the registry?
Have you tried setting the FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION feature control got your application's executable filename?
Remember that the default values for a number of feature controls vary between IE and applications hosting the webbrowser control. If you see different behavior when rendering the same content, it's possible that a feature control needs to be adjusted.
Hope this helps...

Creating options page for BHO

I am creating an IE browser extension using BHO,
I would like to create an option page like the on chrome or firefox.
I want this page to be accessible using manage add-ons page like it works in chrome and firefox. Is it possible? how do I do that?
I am using visual studio ATL and c++
Your Best Best is adding Context Menu or Tools Menu Item.
Basically There is no Standard IE Options Dialog that you can merge your stuff into.
you are gone have to have your own dialog.
as a warning starting with IE10 and IE11. your IE-Addons (BHO,Menu,Toolbar,DeskBank) will not have any access to registry or file system.
if you need to save some stuff. you are gone have to probably create a broker process.
for instance you need to create a windows service that listen on a socket (maybe some random port) and yo you can communicate with it from your options dialog on what to save and what to read.
