I have to develop an application to monitor Safari activity like all open url , tabs on particular window and loding time of particular url.
I also need to track online streaming that is happening on particular opened htmm page
URL of streaming source, which player is being used for streaming and all other basic information which opened page contains.

You can ask Safari for the first two things via AppleScript; the latter is in the Element Inspector, but I'm not sure why you would want it in another application.

That's a separate question, so you should post it separately.

I have below scenario
www.site1.com is opened in one browser window/tab (Which is my website)
www.customersite.com, opened in another browser which is client website.
I have full control over site1.com and I can give a script to embed in the www.customersite.com.
I wanted to inform www.customersite.com whenever www.site1.com is opened in another window. And when www.customersite.com gets to know that www.site1.com is opened, it will transmit some data to mysite1 server
I tried https://github.com/pubkey/broadcast-channel but it is only working when both the window are from same origin.
Is there a any way i can achieve this communication? Is there a way to identify site1.com is opened in another window?
If this is not possible is there amy other way to achieve the same?
I saw this question asked here 18 months ago, but without (a correct) answer: Window like facebook chat
Both Facebook and OkCupid have messaging windows which stay open even when you click to another page on their website. Literally the IM window (and friend list, on Facebook) don't so much as flash or "blink" as if they were reloading quickly. If you refresh the website (F5 or such) then the messages will disappear, at least for a moment.
The only thing I can think of is that the entire website never actually changes addresses, but just pushes the new URLs to your browser so it looks like the URL changed, but you never really left the same file.
How are they offering this persistent chat?
My guess is they are using something similar to qjuery-pjax:
https://github.com/defunkt/jquery-pjax
From their docs:
pjax works by grabbing html from your server via ajax and replacing the content of a container on your page with the ajax'd html. It then updates the browser's current url using pushState without reloading your page's layout or any resources (js, css), giving the appearance of a fast, full page load. But really it's just ajax and pushState.
This means clicking a link on the page will load only part for page and leave the chat windows untouched (no flicker). If you hit F5, the browser is initiating the refresh which will not use ajax/pushState. This causes the chat windows to flicker.
I have a web app in an iframe (Facebook Tab App) on a web page (Facebook).
The web app plays audio and when the user navigates away, usually by clicking on another Facebook link, the page loads another Facebook page and the audio stops.
This works on all browsers except Internet Explorer (IE9). Audio continues to play when I navigate to another Facebook page.
Facebook seems to use the approach where many of their pages are displayed (using hashbang #! approach) without standard page reloading. For me: this means the web app's audio continues to play (the iframe is somehow orphaned?).
The audio stops playing when you navigate to another site that doesn't use the #! URL syntax and the browser properly reloads those pages.
What can I do to ensure the audio stops in my web app (Facebook Tab App) when I navigate to another Facebook page? I'm looking at how to:
Detect an appropriate event in the parent
Explicitly turn off the audio in my web app
I managed to resolve this by hooking onto the unload event on the window, like
$(window).unload(function() {
var a = $("#audio");
a.get(0).pause();
});
I m currently building a facebook style notification system for my site.
I m using long polling. So, the server sends data if its available and closes the connection.
Now the problem i m facing is that, i want it to share across all open tabs or windows of that browser.
I m using a cookie to detect if a tab is already executing the ajax call, so other tabs will not execute it until the operation of the first tab is complete.
Now what i want is, to have an effective way, so that i can show the data across all open tabs in the form or a small fb style popup box.
The goal is if the last active ajax call has some data, then a small popup box will show up on all open browser tab or windows.
As, a theory i may be able to do it via cookie, but i want to know if there is some better way to do that.
Thanks,
Anjan
Browsers don't let pages talk to other pages. You'd have to make an extension to get around the cookie.
If you're ok with the cookie idea, follow these examples:
For client side access
For PHP access
For NodeJS
I was wondering what the best way to keep my background.asp file playing throughout all of my web pages.
My website www.marioplanet.com uses ASP #includes in order to keep certain parts of my website the same. So, if I want to change a link in my header, I just need to update 1 file.
Now, I was wondering how to keep my background.asp file loaded throughout my entire site, which has all of my music functionality, even when changing pages.
Therefore, the music and backgrounds are continuous throughout the entire site.
How can I most easily do this without restructuring my entire site? Or would I have to completely redo my site?
From what I understand, you're looking for a way to keep track of the state of e.g. a music player while your visitor is navigating around on your site.
The following ideas might help:
Make your entire website an AJAX application where state is given through hash identifiers (take a look at Facebook and the jQuery History Forward plugin). With this you could start playing music and the user would navigate around the site without reloading the entire page (hence, without stopping the music).
Set a cookie with the timestamp of when the music player starts (via Javascript). Now, when a page loads, check for the existence of such a cookie and, if returned, calculate the offset between cookie timestamp and current timestamp. Setting the player to that offset will pick up the music approximately where it stopped on the last page.
Control the music in a separate pop-up window. Old fashioned and not really nice in terms of usability.
Control the music in an invisible frame that doesn't reload. Very old fashioned and with major backlashes for the user (there is a reason why traditional frames are out-dated).
Hope this helps. :)
If I understand you correctly, you are essentially wanting to have the background and music (which can be loaded in the background) never reload once the user visits the site. THe best way to do this is to make the site a completely AJAX based application, and use jQuery to load pages into divs when the user is navigating through the site.
Essentially you will want to create an index page which holds your backgound, and also contains a 'content' div. When a user clicks on a navigation button using the jQuery .load() method to load the requested page into the content div.
Another option is to go with jQuery UI, and have an element like their tabs component where you define all of the different pages of the site, and then it takes care of all the heavy lifting for you.
There are a few tutorials around for using jQuery with ASP.Net. I would definately go with it while trying to do something like this.
