@Pete-S said in Wget - Download a Web Dashboard For Local Viewing?:

Here is Firefox headless mode:
Firefox uses the same browser, just run with the headless switch. Works from version 57 and newer.

Thanks. I won't be able to use this with brightsign, but it might work if I have to run windows for a site that I can't view a public dashboard.

@Pete-S said in Digital Signage - Display HTML5 Page That Requires a Login:

You could probably make a script with curl that will login to smartsheet every 5 minutes or whatever, downloads the html5 dashboard page and save it somewhere. Then your media player can access the saved data.

As @Romo said, login details are not sent in the URL.

Yeah. I was thinking it was a long shot. I have been trying to figure out ways to create a local dashboard or similar to what you were saying that does that, or pulls info via an API and then the signage player connects to that, sans login.

I believe that says " I've been learning HTML and HTML5 on free code camp"

It was the "coding adventures" bit.

I gotcha.
I corrected that after you're post.

It's a great discussion to have because as you look at coding, it'll be really important to understand which things you like and don't like and know which parts are programming and which are not.

If anyone is curious as to why these libraries are not in the native Fedora repository, it is due to licensing.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Forbidden_items

well, I'd be more curious as to why they aren't included with FF. But as you already told me privately, it's a conflict of license types.

Yep, just because two different pieces of software are both open source, doesn't mean the licenses work together.

Calligra was always okay. Not great, but certainly not bad.

That is atrocious

Received a few emails from Mozilla myself, about Mozilla Thimble - sadly, only watched the videos so far, but, does look good so far. :nerd:

Yes. Though I thought it was pretty straightforward. The videos are pretty good for free, but the full price of $29 seems optimistic.

No browser supports HTML5 completely correctly. Granted there are ones that do it better than others.

Partially because the final spec is just one day old. But in general, all HTML support is always just "really close." The closer the better, and that is what they generally compete over.

Agreed - and as we all know, until recently MS/IE just used to do their own thing, but now they seem to be at least trying to play better.

As far back as IE7 there has always been extra code snippets that will have to be added to deal with browser inconsistencies with HTML, XHTML and CSS. Most often MS was last to the party and only if you add proprietary coding.
