    This seems like a silly question - how do I exit the browser and return back to MP?

    I can try to remember the shortcut to go directly to TV etc... but there does not seem to be an "exit" command or a way to go back to the previous MP windows...

    Escape or Back button

    The scroll bar of EPG would do better:

    Nice concept, but how would a user (using a remote) move between links on the webpage verses scrolling up and down?

    It would be very convenient if it was possible for skinners to set the size of the browse area in skin, for example through a custom control. Also for widescreen skins it could be usefull.

    I was also looking for such a control to change the size for the browser area. In all widescreen skins (Razor, Bluetwo 1280 and MCE) there is too much unused empty space below the browser area. The width is okay though.

    Could this be added to the plugin?

    Another very long thread, can anyone tell me how you can select a field (like username) and enter text with the on screen keyboard (assuming it is even possible)

    You mean using the down key as "TAB" and the up key as "Shift+TAB" and then OK to simulate "ENTER"? That should be easy to implement, right?
    Or kind of getting the navigation as they exist on smartphones (both scroll and jump to next link) which is possibly less easier to program.

    Unfortunately I can't get actionkeypressed working at all with x10, else it would try that route (ASCII key 9 and 13).

    Well got a minikeyboard with buildin trackball coming in next week, which makes things easier :lol:

    Well, that was my thoughts also. But, in that case why have the scrollbar? I'm thinking that less screens that "need" a mouse or other pointing device should make it easier for the non-techie to use. I do understand that making it easier for a non-techie is harder to develop.

    I've got the same problem.
    Any hint on which files I've got to edit to fix this unused area of my screen thing ?

    Great thread! But my question is: what do I need to do to enable the included WebBrowser plugin? I click on it and nothing happens.

    Thanks.

    Edit: Someone in the Java Chat room pointed me to the Wiki section for the current plugin. Thanks.
