Desktop icon of Web Page
Hello-
I have a client who wants to put me a link on their Web site that will add a desktop icon to the machine of the visitor. In other words, their Web page will be a text that says something to the effect of "To add a desktop icon that links to our site, click here" it will be then add a desktop icon on the user of the machine which, once clicked, you open a browser and load their site. I don't have any idea how to do it and found nothing on this subject of Web search, other than to find other people who want to do the same. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!
Jeff

My icons and Web pages are huge and I can't seem to restore. It's on the small icons and they are still huge. If I change the zoom on the web pages that it goes down, but I can't move the screen. I did a system restore and it still not back. I don't know how it changed at first so I have no idea how to do to get it back.
Check the resolution of your screen.

How can I keep my clock and icons when I go from desktop to a Web page?
Original title: XP Home Edition SP3.
The clock and icons displayed in my taskbar, when I'm at the top of the desktop, do not remain when I go on a web page. Only the zoom feature is displayed. How can I keep my clock and icons when I go from desk top of the page to any web page?
THAT IS TO SAY 8. I should have kept my question as follows: and not to lose the full screen setting, I chose in the TOOLS. I think I should use F11 to choose between full screen or clock & icons.

Looking forward to some tips.

Anniel,
OS X El Capitan: see open windows and spaces in Mission Control is a good place to start to learn how to control your windows.
OS X El Capitan: preferences Mission Control will explain how to adjust the Mission control.
Also, command + Tab is a quick way to switch between applications. Keyboard shortcuts in Mac - Apple Support
The icon on your desktop called 'Finder '.
You can add as many 'program' icons in the Dock, as you wish, but adding too many will be cluttering up the appearance and functionality.

Shortcut on the desktop to the web page "forgets" what the page was about the size.
I have several shortcuts to web pages in my taskbar. When I created them, the window open to a fairly large size. I see no way to know the shortcut to open the window enlarged, but the size is adequate.
However, I needed to see several windows at the same time, so I resized to fit four on the desktop. Now, whenever I open one of these shortcuts, it goes to this small size. I can't find any way to bring them to a larger size. I opened, resized them and they closed the way I want to watch, but it makes no difference. The smaller size seems to be remembered.
Is it possible to get the largest size?
Right-click on the icon shortcut to IE next to the Start button, select Properties, change from "normal" to "maximized". Now open it.
Now make a right click any link on the page, choose open in a new fenΩtre... do not maximize it. Instead, use the mouse to resize it to what you want it to be.
Now close the FIRST window that you opened, and then close it you just resized.Reopen IE of the icon of the shortcut again and all the windows in the future will be the size you have chosen and created.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

What Adobe CS5 product is used to create buttons/icons for Web pages?
Hi, I have Adobe Creative Suite CS5 and I want to create a chart "Buttons" to use for my web pages. How the Creative Suite product is best suited for this?
Thanks in advance!
Nancy... It seems to work. In fact, I tried something similar and came up with similar results. I add extra (for testing) and had to top-level menu item increase the "width: 48em" width: 58 em to adapt the additional menu item. But it seems good. I'm sure that when I become more familiar with CSS, I'll be able to update these things myself.
One last question... When you set the color of the menu items? I tried to change the color elements for the "buttons" from dark red to something, but has not been able to change.
Thanks for your help/advice so far that it is greatly appreciated.

Icons and boxes around the icons of web pages not displayed
Imagine when you look at the Mozilla "enter your user name and password page" all you see is the text but no boxes around the fields. Well well... that's what I see. I see "Enter your username" but next door is no boxes around the field to enter the user name. I have to click around to see where I can type in the box.
Other pages like the page of 360 desktop messaging used for arrow display little bent buttons as "reply" and "reply to all" and "Delete" with a grey but red X now just looking for pages. I tried to reset default FF.

Firefox not displaying only not the icons on web page correctly except in safe mode
Hello. We develop a website for the moment and I don't have FF in safe mode some of the icons are not displayed correctly. All other browsers work fine and it will display in FF without any problem. The site is www.livingonmars.com and the icons are the 2 arrows in the upper right of the slideshow. When in safe mode, I see two arrows. Boot in normal mode I see the bottom half of the arrow to the left and half the right arrow above.
In safe mode, modules and hardware acceleration are disabled. You can try disabling you modules one by one to see if that helps, or you can disable hardware acceleration by doing the following:
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.
You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).
Then perform the following steps:
- Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
- In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
- You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
- Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:
